Madhya Pradesh Culture Minister, Usha Thakur has made yet another controversial statement.
This time, she has exhorted all the need to perform a yagya, terming it as an 'ancient practice since time immemorial to purify our environment for keeping the third Covid wave at bay'.
On April 11 this year, Thakur without wearing a mask performed puja before the Devi Ahilyabai Holkar idol at the Indore airport, sitting along with airport authority officials to ward off the pandemic.
