SRINAGAR, INDIAN ADMINISTERED KASHMIR, INDIA - JUNE 19: Indian troops in civics perform Yoga in their camp ahead of the the first International Day of Yoga on June 2015, in Srinagar, the summer capital of Indian administered Kashmir, India. Indian troopers perform Yoga exercise in their camp in Srinagar city, two days ahead of the first International Day of Yoga to be held on Sunday June 21, after approved by the United Nations on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modis suggestion. India has close to a million soldiers posted in Kashmir, making the disputed Himalayan region one of the most militarized zones in the world. The ongoing conflict has taken a heavy toll on the mental health of the Indian armed forces prompting New Delhi to take slew of measures to control the stress among its forces. Yoga is one of the measure the Indian Defence Ministry has taken to reduce the stress of its forces battling militancy in Jammu and Kashmir. Thousands of people especially Indian Hindus are preparing to gather at events, which will be held on Sunday, around the world to mark the first International Day of Yoga, after the United Nations agreed to Indian Prime Minister Modis suggestion to observe June 21 as International Yoga Day. However Muslims have voiced suspicions about Modis Bharatiya Janata Party and accuse its ideological parent, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), of pushing an agenda to change India from a secular to a Hindu country. About 20 million people are estimated to regularly perform the exercises in the United States and they spend an annual $ 10 billion on classes and related products, a 2012 a study says.
