“Yoga is a complete exercise that rejuvenates one from within. It has been proven that yoga brings positive thoughts and helps bring change. It is a process that connects the body to the soul and undoubtedly increases efficiency and concentration,” said Bhushan Kumar Upadhyay, Director General Prison at the Yerawada Central Prison
