U16 South Asian Basketball Championship: Continuing its mission to build a healthier, pollution-free India, the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, in partnership with India Post, organised a special edition of ‘Fit India Sundays on Cycle’ across 6000 locations nationwide. Started by Sports Minister Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya in December 2024, the cycling initiative has been organised across more than 41,000 locations till now with an overall participation of 7.5 lakh-plus individuals.

The 34th edition paid tribute to the postmen of India, the country’s original cyclists, who for decades have connected people, places, and stories, often on nothing more than a sturdy bicycle and a strong sense of duty. India Post organised the cycling movement in its nationwide network of more than 1.5 lakh post offices. Around 3000 Namo Fit India Clubs also participated in the event.

With their khaki uniforms and humble cycles, India’s postmen have become timeless symbols of fitness, trust, and community service. On Sunday, the nation honoured its legacy and cycled with it.
