A fit PM is great, what about the people?

The Prime Minister is admired for his fitness. But Twitterati are more worried about the health of the nation.

The Prime Minister is admired for his fitness. But Twitterati are more worried about the health of the nation. Many have expressed the opinion that while fitness may be a nice thing to aim for, the expectations around a Prime Minister’s position are much higher.

They would, perhaps, want the PM to take up the challenge of vikas for all while leaving their fitness regimens to them. In fact, the Karnataka CM, H D Kumaraswamy, when challenged on his fitness, retorted by saying that he was concerned more with the health of his state Karnataka.

A fit PM is great, what about the people?

The fitness challenge, first thrown by the sports minister, has proved popular and it came to the PM via Team India cricket captain Virat Kohli. But then Twitterati also have a point to make about access to spaces like the one in which the PM practices his yoga.

A fit PM is great, what about the people?

In fact, some have a legitimate grouse about the areas around the pathways on which they walk or run for their fitness are dirty and that they need to be cleaned. Swachh Bharat may have to catch up with common areas like parks and walking spaces which the public use in highly built up cities and the PM should inspire the states and the cities to present a clean environment so that people may be healthier. And, June 21st is Wold Yoga Day.

Honourable Modiji my walking track in Mumbai is disgustingly filthy and not maintained by the richest municipality in the world . Perhaps if you visit it might get spruced up #HumFitTohIndiaFit

Television networks pride themselves on saturation coverage of major sports events around the world, like the US Open golf. There are cameras in hundreds and live mikes planted among the crowd too.

US Open golf

But imagine the shock when the TV picked up a bizarre conversation on sex between two people and beamed it right across US and the globe. There was egg on the face of the host broadcaster Fox Sports which profusely apologised for the sexual chatter
