Introduction: YOGA owes its origin to
India, the land of great Rishis
and Munis. Due to its manifold benefits for overall growth of an
individual, in terms of body, mind and soul, it has been gaining world
wide recognition. However, To make the citizens of Solapur know the
importance of Yoga, to make the children and the youth have affiliation
with this ancient Indian culture and reap benefits in today's stressed
life, to embed discipline through the medium of Yoga and to Motivate
practicing yoga through competitions, ,
an organization was required to be constituted . In
view to bring above into reality, the Solapur Jilha Yoga Parishad
was formed in 2002 and sought affiliation of Maharashtra State
Organisation viz. Brihan Maharashtra Yoga Parishad Amaravati.
Therefore, for the preservation and expansion of Yoga,
the great ancient culture, art and indigenous sports of glorious India,
an organization was required to be constituted at district level. In
view to the realization of that aim, the Solapur Jilha Yoga Parishad came
into existence.

the Town.
