The Fit India Freedom Run was first launched in 2020 to inspire citizens to embrace fitness and raise awareness about the prevention of lifestyle diseases. The run encourages people to dedicate at least 30 minutes each day to physical activity while promoting the dual message of Swachhata and Swasth (Cleanliness and Health).
Now in its 7th edition, the Freedom Run 7.0 will be held from 2 October (Gandhi Jayanti) to 31 October (National Unity Day). It is envisioned as the country's largest fitness and cleanliness Jan Andolan, bringing together educational institutions, PSUs, ministries, communities, athletes, and citizens in a nationwide movement.
