Yoga Promotes physical and mental health. It disciplines the mind and improves the powers of concentration. Therefore, it is ideally suited for studies and teachers in the university who are involved in intellectual pursuits. Because of very modest requirement of space and money, Yoga can be practiced even where such facilities are available in a limited sense. However, Yoga is a discipline based on meticulous practice. Therefore, the objective of the UGC scheme is to help create a competent facility manned by traditionally trained persons for Yoga education and practice for use of the students/teachers in the universities. Therefore the institution of Yoga Centre is must in the University. Accordingly the Bangalore University considered the starting of Yoga Centre in the university.
