A year ago, the Maharashtra government asked educational institutions to observe International Yoga Day. This year, the University Grants Commission (UGC) that regulates and finances public universities has asked colleges and universities across the country to promote PhD courses in yoga, and encourage foreign students to take courses in the subject. The AYUSH ministry has said it is willing to award fellowships to students selected or recommended by the universities. The direction came in a circular the UGC issue, following a request from the AYUSH ministry. It said as the country prepares to celebrate its 2nd International Yoga Day on June 21, the Prime Minister has suggested starting a course. The compulsory celebration of Yoga Day last year did not go down well with many schools and colleges, but the option of a PhD in the field has impressed many educationists.
