These sessions will be free of cost and will be open for all," a senior NDMC official said.

"Taking the initiative of promoting yoga we have also identified six yoga sthals in our areas where everyone can experience yoga in the true sense of unifying body and mind amidst proper surroundings," he said.

The identified spots include-Lodhi Garden, Sanjay Jheel in Laxmi Bai Nagar, Nehru Park, Subhash Park in Netaji Nagar, Talkatora Garden and Children Park at India Gate.
