Subject:- Request for improving the Health of Central Government Employees by providing Fitness facilities in CGHS Medical Wellness centres and Government Departments/Offices.

Respected Sir,


          I wish to bring to your kind attention the fast decreasing HEALTH OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES WORKING IN GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS in Delhi due to  sedentary life style. Due to lack of daily exercise , these people are developing many diseases such as High Blood pressure, Diabetiies, increase in weight of the body and many other work related diseases. Due to this, the health bills are enormously increasing day by day for them. Now-a-days the l Government hospitals are over burdened with sick patients. For these government servants, the use of Stationary cycling /Fitness Centres may be installed in all Government departments  and Medical Wellness Centres on priority basis. These Fitness Centres may be duly promoted by the Delhil Government and would greatly benefit all the Working and Retired Government employees in Delhi. This project should be adopted in all the Government Departments and all the Medical Wellness Centres urgently.

(a). Health Benefits of Cycling

IT IS ‘very surprising that cycling causes the level of control of blood pressure. The more you sweat the more light the feeling of your body will be felt. And one of the most important things is that you risk even people diagnosed with cancer and diabetes.

(b). Health Benefits of Cycling for a Government Servant
• Increased Fitness - Through cycling, you will be able to increase your heart and lung fitness, as well as your strength and stamina.
• Weight Loss - The general population of the India in big cities is becoming increasingly obese. Cycling is a great way to help lose weight. You will burn fat as you cycle, which will help you look and feel better.
• Stress Reduction - Exercise in general has been shown to decrease anxiety and stress levels, and bicycling is a fun way to exercise. Keeping yourself out of traffic jams will also help in reducing stress.
• Heart Benefits - Studies have shown that regular exercise, such as cycling, lowers your risk of high blood pressure, heart attacks and strokes.
• Lowered Risk of Other Health Problems - In addition to heart disease, regular exercise can also help you to avoid other health problems such as non-insulin dependent diabetes, osteo arthritis and osteoporosis. Exercise also relieves symptoms of depression and increases your mental health.
• Increased Life Expectancy - The end result of having better health through cycling is that you will live a longer and happier life!

In the interest of Good Governance, I hope the you would personally look into the matter and take positive steps in introducing the Stationary Cycles and Fitness Centres concept for gaining Health benefits for all the Government Employees in their departments.

In view of the details mentioned above, I would be grateful, if you could personally look into the matter and take urgent necessary positive steps in the matter so that all the Government Servants and Retired Government Employees can benefit from your kind action in the matter.  .

Thanking you.

 Yours faithfully,
