Additionally, the Chief Minister has directed officials to launch a large-scale “Fit Uttarakhand” campaign. The primary goal of this campaign is to create awareness among citizens about health, hygiene, and fitness, encouraging them to adopt a healthier lifestyle. Educational institutions, government bodies, and private organizations will also be involved to ensure maximum participation.

CM Dhami also mentioned Prime Minister Modi’s call for raising awareness about reducing obesity. He stressed the importance of mindful eating habits, particularly reducing excessive oil consumption in daily meals. Through the “Fit Uttarakhand” campaign, this message will be spread across the state. The government aims to reach every citizen with the campaign’s message. Various outreach methods will be used to inspire people to incorporate fitness into their daily routines, making Uttarakhand a healthier and more active state.
