LG: Yoga establishes universal happiness worldwide by breaking the walls...

Best wishes on the 9th International Yoga Day. I also wish good luck to everyone, said the Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, Shri Manoj Sinha while participating in the yoga in Srinagar.   The theme of Yoga Day is 'Yoga For Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam' . It underlines the vision of our Prime Minister Narendra Modi of One Earth-One Family-One Future. In the whole world, from Europe to America, Africa to Australia, from South Asia to the Middle East, in every country, yoga has established the concept of universal happiness by breaking the walls of religion, sect and language. The same feeling is visible in every corner of the world today on the auspicious occasion of Yoga Day. It is also visible in the Botanical Garden of Srinagar, LG said. This ancient and rich tradition of our country is based more on prevention than treatment for better health. Yoga is an unprecedented strength of our traditional system of medicine in keeping people healthy in India through yoga. It is the science which India has given to the whole world through Yoga. It is an extraordinary force that can eliminate stress and make the body disease free. And you can get a health guarantee for the whole year without any premium. By removing the crowd and achieving the centre in our personality, Yoga discipline simply means transforming order within. Yoga by eliminating physical and mental disorders brings body and mind in harmony in one rhythm. And the body will behave the way you want from your inner centre. In today's run-of-the-mill life, yoga also makes a person naturally mindful. Also keeps his physical and mental system peaceful. And as the fitness level increases, it also works to reduce cardiovascular risk. Yoga is the medium that brings changes in lifestyle and makes everyone healthy. Along with making every citizen healthy, it also works to bind everyone in the thread of unity, the Lt Governor said. It was a great sight, a gathering of 6000-7000 people. Taking this theme we involved people saying the whole universe is one so we have to have oneness, said yoga practitioners. This oneness brings yoga discipline teaching us to align the mind, body and soul, said participants. Yoga is a physical exercise that connects our physical bodies with nature. It connects our souls with nature. It suits our minds, one female remarked. As far as we students are concerned, we are so stressed and we should do yoga. It’s not that we are Muslims and we cannot do exercise, a Muslim student pointed out. I recommend everybody to do yoga at home everyday because it is important for the body as well as the soul. Yoga is our legacy, part of our culture. Yoga is a lifestyle promoting our mental, physical and spiritual health, said yoga enthusiasts.

J&K Attack: Drones, Sniffer Dogs Used In Hunt For Terrorists, 12 Detained

The entire area of Tota-Gali-Bata Doriya, which has dense forests, has been cordoned off.

Poonch: At least 12 people were detained on Friday for questioning in connection with the deadly ambush of five army soldiers in the dense forest area of Bata Doriya here even as a MI helicopter, drones, and sniffer dogs were pressed into service in a massive manhunt for the perpetrators of last afternoon's attack.

Officials said that those detained were being questioned at various levels by the security forces to ascertain the identity of the terror group, which is believed to be active in the area for more than a year and probably comprises a snipper too.

A day after the attack, Director General of Jammu and Kashmir Police Dilbag Singh along with Additional Director General police Mukesh Singh was camping in neighbouring Rajouri district to oversee the investigation. The two officers also visited the site.

A National Investigation Agency (NIA) team headed by a Deputy Inspector General rank officer was also present as the agency is likely to take over the case.

Initial reports suggest the presence of around five terrorists and the army truck is believed to have been attacked from three different sides. After the ambush, the terrorists possibly used grenades as well as sticky bombs that set the vehicle ablaze.

Vehicular traffic was suspended on the national highway between Bhimber Gali and Jarran Wali Gali for the second consecutive day.

The officials said those who executed the attack are believed to have been present in Rajouri and Poonch for more than one year and had adequate knowledge of the terrain which is quite tough, they said.

The area is a hotbed of Jammu and Kashmir Gaznavi Force (JKGF) as its 'commander' Rafiq Ahmed alias Rafiq Nayi, who is a resident of the area, they added.

At present, three to four terrorist groups are active in the region of Rajouri and Poonch, the sources said.

Banned terror group People's Anti-Fascist Front (PAFF), a proxy wing of terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed, has claimed responsibility for the attack. There are reports suggesting that it was a handiwork of banned Lashker-e-Taiba group also.

The entire area of Tota-Gali-Bata Doriya, which has dense forests, has been cordoned off.

Officials said drones and sniffer dogs are being used to trace the terrorists, adding the army also conducted a recee of the area with a MI-chopper.

The five Army personnel were killed and another was seriously injured on Thursday after their vehicle caught fire following the attack. The soldiers were from a Rashtriya Rifles unit deployed for counter-terror operations.

Top army and police officials on Friday laid wreaths and paid homage to the soldiers -- Havildar Mandeep Singh of Chankoian village of Ludhiana (Punjab), Lance Naik Kulwant Singh of Charik village of Moga district (Punjab), Sepoy Harkrishan Singh of village Talwandi of Gurdaspur district (Punjab) and Sepoy Sewak Singh of Bagha village of Bathinda district (Punjab).

The bodies were sent to their native places, they said.

Officials said a high alert has been sounded in the twin border districts of Rajouri and Poonch amid heightened vigil along the Line of Control.

Meanwhile, Jammu witnessed several protests by BJP, VHP, Rastriya Bajrang Dal, Shiv Sena, Dogra Front and Jammu Statehood organisation among others.

In a tweet, the Army said, "Chief of the Army Staff General Manoj Pande and all ranks of Indian Army salute the supreme sacrifice of five Indian Army bravehearts, Hav Mandeep Singh, L/Nk Debashish Baswal, L/Nk Kulwant Singh, Sep Harkrishan Singh and Sep Sewak Singh who laid down their lives in the line of duty at Poonch Sector yesterday." Jammu and Kashmir Lt Governor Manoj Sinha said he was anguished at the loss of lives of the brave soldiers.

"Their rich service to the nation will never be forgotten. My thoughts are with the bereaved families," he said in a tweet.
