Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  conventional physiotherapy in group 1 and yoga therapy with conventional physiotherapy in group 2  After the baseline evaluation, group 1 (Experimental Group) and group 2 (Control Group) to receive yoga therapy with conventional physiotherapy and conventional physiotherapy respectively. The experimental group will be given yoga therapy which includes 6 asanas (Tadasana, Uttitha Trikonasana, Virbhadrasana, Dandasana, Sputa Padangustasana, and Baddha Konasana) for 30 min and conventional physiotherapy (Strengthening exercise in form of Static Quadriceps Exercise, Last Degree Knee Extension, Straight Leg Raising, Knee Extension in high sitting and Trans Electrical Nerve Stimulation) for 20 min 3days /week. The control group will be given conventional physiotherapy (Strengthening exercises in the form of Static Quadriceps Exercise, Last Degree Knee Extension, Straight Leg Raising, Knee Extension in high sitting and Trans Electrical Nerve Stimulation) for 20 min 3 days a week. The intervention to the both groups will be given for 1month. The therapist who is going to conduct treatment sessions will be trained to provide yoga. First outcome measures will be taken before the session, second outcome measures will be taken after the 15 days, third outcome measures will be taken after 1 month by the Therapist in the form of WOMAC (The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index) scale and SF (Short Form) – 36 Questionnaire. The scales which are going to be used in our study are not free accessible in gujarati version so we will be using english versions of these scales which are freely accessible.

Brief Summary   Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative disorder which priminary affecting the articular cartilage of synovial joints, then boney remodeling and overgrowth at the margins of the joints occurs.
 
The consequences of Osteoarthritis is Pain, joint stiffness, decreased muscle performance, and decreased aerobic capacity which  affect the quality of life and increase the risk for disability for the individual with Osteoarthritis.
 
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the second most common rheumatologic problem in India and has a prevalence rate of 22–39%. Worldwide prevalence rate of Osteoarthritis is 20% for men, 41% for women. Osteoarthritis causes pain or dysfunction in 20% of the elder people. Relieving pain stiffness and improving physical functions are the important goals of the present day therapy.
 
OA is a chronic condition that has no effective cure, so self-management is important to control the symptoms of Osteoarthritis3. Recent practice guidelines recognize that exercise is a key element of any treatment program for Osteoarthritis. It is recommended that moderate physical activity at least three times per week can reduce the risk of arthritis-related disability by 47 %.
 
The prolonged disability and pain will lead to loss of quadriceps femoris muscle strength (loss of force-generating capacity of muscle), coronary heart disease, and depression. The treatment of osteoarthritis included Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), physical therapy exercise and treatment programs, cortisone injections, and joint replacement surgery. 
 
The physiotherapist plays an important role in the patients with hip and knee osteoarthritis5.Fitness walking, aerobic exercise, and strength training have all been reported to result in functional improvement in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee.
