While most sportspersons the world over are looking for ways to practise or train during this Coronavirus-forced lockdown, India's Asian Games silver medal-winning sailor Dr Sweta Shervegar (28) is busy serving the needy through her noble profession.

Last month, Dr Shervegar helped counsel around 4,500 daily wage workers over the phone through an initiative by Navi Mumbai-based NGO Prabhat Trust. Across the last two weeks, Dr Shervegar, a homoeopath, has been treating around 250 patients for free, daily at different medical camps in south Mumbai. Such is her dedication that even a recent bike accident has not dampened her spirit.
