Yoga guru Baba Ramdev found himself in back-track mode once again, after being rapped on the knuckles by Health Minister Harsh Vardhan. Ramdev had said that allopathy is stupid.

The popular figure has been rightly slammed by doctors and the minister has asked him to apologise and retract his statement. This is especially galling at a time like this when our men and women in white coats are doing stirring deeds for the nation at the forefront of the Coronavirus fight.
