Pedal Power: Cycling for a Healthier India

Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya's 'Sundays on Cycle' movement has engaged over two lakh participants nationwide. With roots in the Fit India Movement, the initiative encourages fitness and combats drug use. Upcoming events will target diverse groups, aiming to continue national engagement with a healthy lifestyle.

Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya's groundbreaking initiative, 'Sundays on Cycle,' has motivated over 200,000 participants since its launch last December. The movement, part of the broader Fit India Movement, teams up with the Cycling Federation of India and MY Bharat to spread the message of fitness.

Encompassing regions from Jammu & Kashmir to Tamil Nadu, the effort underscores healthy living and advocates against drug use. The Indian Army, CRPF, and other organizations, along with notable athletes like Neeraj Chopra and Lovlina Borgohain, have shown robust support.

Upcoming editions will zero in on groups such as government employees and children, furthering its mission to tackle obesity and pollution in line with the vision set by PM Narendra Modi.
