Fitness ka dose

Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium: When world boxing champion Meenakshi Hooda arrived at the Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium early on Sunday, she found herself among hundreds of cyclists, fitness enthusiasts, and families ready to ride together in the spirit of health and community.

“I feel so happy to join today,” she said. “Just like I maintain my fitness through boxing, it is equally important for every woman, especially housewives and girls who may not play sports, to stay fit. They often get so busy with their daily routines that they forget themselves. This movement reminds everyone that fitness can be simple, joyful, and for everyone.”

Her words captured the essence of Fit India Sundays on Cycle, now in its 45th edition. What began in December 2024 with around 500 participants in Delhi and 1,000 locations nationwide has today become a vibrant public movement that brings together more than 50,000 people every week across over 6,000 locations.
