Overview
Trident Group marked the 12th International Yoga Day on 21 June 2026 with large‑scale celebrations at its manufacturing sites in Sanghera and Dhaula (Punjab), Budhni (Madhya Pradesh), and its corporate office in Ludhiana. The press release, dated Monday 22 June 2026, outlines the event’s purpose of promoting holistic well‑being and healthy living among its workforce and surrounding communities.
Event Details
More than 1,000 participants—including employees, their family members, and residents from neighbouring villages—took part in the programme. Certified yoga instructors conducted guided yoga and meditation sessions at each location, covering a range of asanas, breathing exercises, and meditation techniques aimed at improving flexibility, concentration and overall fitness. The sessions also underscored the importance of adopting healthy daily habits, mindfulness, and regular physical activity. Refreshments were provided to all attendees.
Leadership Commentary
Chairman Emeritus and Rajya Sabha MP Rajinder Gupta highlighted yoga as a comprehensive lifestyle, stating that “Yoga is not merely a physical exercise but a complete way to make life balanced, meaningful and purposeful.” He linked the initiative to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “Yoga for Humanity 2.0” message and warned that fast‑paced modern life increases stress, anxiety and mental fatigue, making yoga increasingly relevant. Gupta further noted that while today’s youth enjoy unprecedented opportunities, they also face immense pressure, and yoga can provide direction, confidence and strength.
Ongoing Wellness Initiatives
The celebration reinforced Trident Group’s broader employee‑wellness strategy, which includes regular awareness drives on posture correction, eye‑relaxation exercises, desk‑based stretching, and scheduled wellness breaks. These measures are presented as part of the company’s commitment to preventive healthcare, healthy ageing and a positive workplace culture.
