New Delhi, Jan 30 (IANS) Olympic bronze medallist boxer Vijender Singh on Thursday welcomed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Fit-India Initiative’ and said it was a great movement to promote a balanced diet and fitness.

“We should emphasize small changes in our daily routines which are important for health. I think this is a great initiative and we support the Prime Minister’s campaign and we welcome that he has really taken a step in this direction,” said Vijender.
Vijender, the first Indian boxer to win an Olympic medal, said everyone should come forward and enthusiastically support the ‘Fit India Initiative’ by the Prime Minister. “Let us all come together and become part of this initiative by the Prime Minister,” said the 39-year-old boxer from Haryana.
