Diabetes is a major Non-Communicable Disease, posing threat to the human community and exchequer of the globe. India is going to be the global capital for diabetes by 2025. Taking into consideration, the percentage of population reeling under diabetes and to prevent the nation from becoming the Diabetic Capital of the World, the Ministry of AYUSH has planned various projects involving both Governmental and non- governmental institutions working for this social cause. One of the projects is a mega nationwide program - Niyantritha-Madhumeha-Bharat-Abhiyaan(NMBA), routed through central council of research in yoga and naturopathy, New Delhi, and implemented by the Indian Yoga Association (IYA). NMBA is focusing on controlling the increasing prevalence of diabetes in India through yoga based lifestyle.

For NMBA, a team from Indian Yoga Assocaition(IYA), Delhi is closely working with the Ministry of AYUSH. Under guidance and technical assistance of Swami Vivekananda Yoga Anusandhana Samsthana(SVYASA), 2.4 Lakh adults (age 20-70) will be screened in 60 districts (1 to 7 / state depending on the population of the state) covering 30 states of the country by trained YIDMs (yoga instructors for diabetes movement’) as field therapists (around 1200) monitored by senior research fellows(SRFs) and a state level IYA committee. They will conduct yoga camps in selected villages and towns (selected by the randomization method by an international medical research team) covering a total of 48,000 pre-diabetics and diabetics with intensive follow up for 3 months.
