Madhya Pradesh Minister Imravati Devi has refuted all news that she has tested positive for COVID-19. She went on to add, she is immune to the infection owing to the fact that she is born in gobar (cow dung) and mitti (mud)."I am born in mud and cow dung. Corona cannot come to me," Imarti Devi, Minister of Women and Force Development of the state, said angrily while talking to the media amid rumours that she had tested positive for the virus infection. Pointing towards her mask, which was hanging by her chin, the minister even said that she was wearing it forcefully.

A video of the incident is going viral on social media. Imarti Devi's brief confrontation with the media is believed to have happened on September 3 when she had gone to meet BJP leader Jyotiraditya Scindia at his residence.Earlier, Minister of State for Water Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation, and Parliamentary Affairs, Arjun Ram Meghwal, MP for the Bharatiya Janata Party, endorsed a 'papad' that would fight the novel coronavirus. Meghwal, the BJP MP, said a papad brand named "Bhabhiji Papad" may help produce the antibodies required to counter coronavirus. However, few weeks later, the minister had tested positive for the virus. From the President of Ameirca Donald Trump suggesting to inject disinfectants to Indian politicians recommending egg fry and rum immunity booster to fight the infection, the list is just going long and long.
