Over 6,000 police officers tested Covid-19 positive with 19 dying of the disease
Sitting cross-legged on mats in a courtyard, dozens of Bangladesh policemen breathed in and out in sync as they took part in mass yoga sessions, organized to boost their health during the coronavirus pandemic.

Police officers played a key role in enforcing a lockdown in the country of 168 million people before it was lifted at the end of May.

But the virus has also infected more than 6,000 officers throughout Bangladesh, with 19 dying of Covid-19.

In the capital Dhaka, at least 1,850 policemen got the disease and 10 died, according to government figures.

"They are playing a vital role staying on the streets to maintain law and order," said Rajon Kumar Saha, a spokesperson for Dhaka police's diplomatic security division, which initiated the yoga sessions on Sunday.

"It was important to keep them stress-free during duty," he commented.

Members of the Bangladesh Police attend a yoga session to boost their immune system, amid the Covid-19 pandemic, in Dhaka on Monday, June 8, 2020 AFPCoronavirus cases in the impoverished nation were rising daily even during the lockdown, and experts fear there could be sharper increases with the economy now opening up.

In the congested Dhaka, maintaining social distancing has been difficult for locals, adding to the pressure on police and other law enforcement agencies, Saha remarked.

"We were instructed to do what could be done to morally boost the force amid this crisis. This yoga is a part of that mission for us," he said, adding that up to 1,200 personnel will participate in these sessions.

Yoga instructor Shama Makhing, who led some 100 officers in stretching and breathing exercises early Monday, said the ancient practice from India would support the officers physically and mentally.

"They cannot skip duty, therefore it is important for the policemen to be fit. Yoga... can help with their breathing," Makhing added.

Muhit Kabir Sarneabat, the unit's deputy chief, said police were considering rolling out yoga and other physical exercises for officers in other divisions.

Bangladesh has so far reported 68,504 Covid-19 cases including 930 deaths.

MODI-mbo khush hoa :rofl:

Hahahahahaha comedy ghuskhors must be pretty pissed and enraged at not being able to harass and extort their country due to pandemic.

They're channeling this inner rage and yearning for haram er kamai into yoga.
of they really want inner peace make a mosque and give them quran to read there .:p:D
 
They will sit outside and take toll from mussalis (pilgrims), 5 taka for one waqt Salah with jamat.
so they are doing this drama becasue someone somewhere want to make happy someone ?

because as i know BD people are muslim if they just sit in mosque read quraan they will be relaxed from stress . and if they read translated quraan then they will be more better and feel more good .

Bhai, in name we are all Muslim but realistically speaking do you think these people really care about religion, money is the new God.

Corrupt people love money.

I don't know about Pakistan but in Bangladesh the Muslims population is for three type :

x - 20% jamati types who take religion seriously and pray on time etc

x - 50% normal regular who only pray on Friday, Eid and when they need help from Allah they will play some nafal namaz. These also regularly disregard religion when it comes to personal benefit.

x - 30% these are Muslim only in name, they will do all kinds of haram things, banging whores, drinking alcohol, never pray etc take bribes and all that..... Only time these people wake up is when some non Muslim makes fun of Islam and suddenly they're all so offended.

The reason why secularism works in Bangladesh is because we are not very religious everyone knows this
 
Maintaining physical fitness and having a bmi 25 or below gives people a better chance of survival against coronavirus. I am not against this as long the spiritual elements have been taken out.

They should have included core exercising and H.I.T training.
 
Ah yess. Israel, a nation known for its integrity. But then again, Pakistan of 1971 and Israel have a lot in common. Both think that they are superior because of their language and their skin colour is closer to Europeans.
yes they are better then east Pakistanis for sure . even they are jews .

It wasn't the Jews who defended Lahore but the East Bengal Regiment. Shows how some of you Pakistanis are, unable to accept your country's dark past.
