AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann will launch 'CM di Yogshala' programme in the State on April 5, a party statement said.
The statement came a day after Mr. Mann said his government will initially start the 'CM di Yogshala' initiative, under which people can avail free yoga classes, in four cities — Amritsar, Ludhiana, Phagwara and Patiala.
Punjab Health Minister Balbir Singh on Tuesday said the government has launched a helpline number — 7669400500 — where people can give a missed call to seek a free yoga teacher.
People will be able to get all kinds of information about diet and yoga, he said.
"Today, so many people are suffering from diseases related to the respiratory system, blood pressure, sugar levels and heart issues. Therapeutic yoga can help all these patients a great deal," Mr. Singh said.
He said 60 people have been trained at Guru Ravidas University to teach yoga under the 'CM di Yogshala' initiative.
"With 'CM di Yogshala', people will lead a healthier life, they will easily get yoga instructors and proper guidance," he said.

The design team at The Indian Twist works on the spontaneous artworks by children and young adults from A Brush With Art (@abwa_chennai) and CanBridge Academy (thecanbridgeacademy), “kneading” them into its products, thereby transforming these artworks into a state of saleability. CanBridge Academy provides life skill training to young adults with autism. And ABWA promotes “expression of natural art in children with special needs”.
