Fit India Mission will provide live sessions by experts covering a range of topics for holistic well-being of school going children, which will include simple actionable tips around basic exercises, nutrition, yoga & meditation, boosting immunity etc. These sessions will be LIVE on youtube daily at 9.30 AM starting from 20th April 2020, at the following link
