The country's UNESCO envoy, Ruchira Kamboj, has raised the eyebrows in a section of the foreign office. On Thursday, she broke the news on Twitter that Yoga had joined UNESCO's list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. While pointing out that all 24 member countries of the inter-governmental group had unanimously voted in favor of it being part of the list, she tagged not only official Indian government handles, including PM Narendra Modi but some others as well - Baba Ramdev, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, and BJP's Ram Madhav.
