Royal Academy of Punjab Celebrates Children’s Day with Fit India Bhangra Fitness Session

November 14, 2026

Promoting a Fit, Healthy and Drug-Free Generation Through Punjabi Folk Dance

On the occasion of Children’s Day, Royal Academy of Punjab proudly participated in the Fit India Movement through an energetic Bhangra Fitness Session as part of the Nasha Mukt Yuva Campaign.

The session brought together young participants to celebrate fitness, cultural heritage and healthy living through the vibrant beats of Punjabi Bhangra.

More than just a dance session, the initiative carried an important message: Say NO to drugs and YES to fitness, health and a brighter future.

Through Bhangra, participants experienced how traditional Punjabi folk dance can encourage physical activity, build confidence, promote teamwork and inspire positive lifestyle choices.

Royal Academy of Punjab believes that cultural activities play an important role in youth development. By combining traditional folk arts with fitness and community engagement, the Academy continues to encourage young people to stay active, connected to their heritage and focused on their well-being.

We extend our sincere appreciation to the Fit India Movement for this meaningful initiative and the opportunity to contribute to the Nasha Mukt Yuva Campaign.

Together, we can inspire a stronger, healthier and drug-free generation.

FIT INDIA. FIT YOUTH. DRUG-FREE INDIA. 🇮🇳
