International Day of Yoga 2026 in Kuwait: Curtain-Raiser events
In a first-of-its-kind initiative, the Embassy of India, Kuwait organized a curtain-raiser yoga session at the Gulf SPIC Labour Camp today in the lead-up to International Day of Yoga 2026.
The event holds special significance as Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi visited the camp during his historic visit to Kuwait in December 2024.
A large number of Indian nationals enthusiastically participated in the session, practicing the Common Yoga Protocol and reflecting the spirit of this year's theme, “Yoga for Healthy Ageing,” highlighting yoga’s role in promoting physical vitality, mental well-being, and a healthier quality of life across all age groups.
Ambassador @ParamitaTrpathi also handed over sports kits, including carrom boards, chess sets, and cricket and football equipment, and underscored the importance of health, fitness, and active lifestyles as integral elements of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s vision of #KheloIndia and #FitIndia.

I welcome the understanding reached between the United States and Iran on ending the conflict in West Asia, which has caused serious economic disruption across the world and led to loss of life in many countries.
India hopes that the implementation of this understanding will help restore peace and stability in the region and ensure the freedom of navigation and commerce.
We look forward to deliberations on the remaining issues reaching a sustainable final agreement.
Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi held a telephone conversation with His Highness Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al Sabah, Amir of the State of Kuwait, today.
The leaders reaffirmed their shared commitment to peace, dialogue and regional stability.
Prime Minister appreciated Kuwait’s continued care and support for the Indian community in Kuwait.

Wonderful to speak with my dear friend President Trump today. Delighted that Made in India products will now have a reduced tariff of 18%. Big thanks to President Trump on behalf of the 1.4 billion people of India for this wonderful announcement.
When two large economies and the world’s largest democracies work together, it benefits our people and unlocks immense opportunities for mutually beneficial cooperation.
President Trump’s leadership is vital for global peace, stability, and prosperity. India fully supports his efforts for peace.
I look forward to working closely with him to take our partnership to unprecedented heights.
