\u201cThere are very few Prime Ministers in the world who make so many clarion calls, focusing on the health and well-being of its citizens.

Rathore mentioned in the sidelines of the Sundays on Cycle event at the Amar Jawan Jyoti, Jaipur, this morning.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFrom reducing our oil consumption to having millets (shree anna) and working dedicatedly on reducing obesity, our Hon\u2019ble Prime Minister has always urged us to take all measures to be fit, be it through yoga, cycling, running, or other various ways. The movement created in the nation through the Sundays on Cycle is an evident example of this. In Jaipur today, close to 1000 kids are taking part in it and there are cycles also available for them,\u201d Col. Rathore, who holds the distinction of being the first Indian post-independence to win an individual silver at the Olympics, added.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
