AHMEDABAD: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to lead a yoga session for top cops at the All-India Conference of Directors General/Inspectors General of Police at Dhordo village in Kutch district from December 18-20.

"Five yoga instructors have been hired to conduct daily yoga sessions for cops at 6am," said Gujarat DGP P C Thakur. "The prime minister is likely to participate in the 45-minute yoga session."

Thakur said nearly 400 dignitaries - including 50 DGs and ADGPs as well as their families - are expected to attend the conference in the desert venue about 170 km from the Pakistan border. "About 650 tents are being erected in Dhordo along with a helipad and a large conference hall," said Kutch collector M S Patel.

After he became the PM, the annual conference was held outside Delhi for the first time - in Guwahati in November 2014. The agenda this time includes internal security, coastal security, deradicalization of youths amid the IS threat, misuse of social media and crimes against women.

The food will be vegetarian. "Gujarati khaman, dhokla and Gujarati thali will be there for lunch, while dinner will be a mixed spread of regional flavours," said a tour operator handling travel for the guests. "However, the fare will be vegetarian."

Short trips to Aina Mahal in Bhuj city, Kala Dungar and Mandvi beach will be organized. Visits to pilgrim destinations such as Somnath and Dwarka will also be arranged.

Modi had first introduced yoga for bureaucrats at a conference in Dhordo, a village of about 300 people, in 2009. Dhordo is 90 km from Bhuj, the district quarters.
