Lok Sabha MP Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur has tested positive for Covid-19.

In 2021, the politician revealed that she drinks cow urine to prevent Covid-19. "Gau-mutra ark' (cow urine extract) of a desi cow keeps us away from lung infection. I am in a lot of trouble ((health issues) but take the 'gaumutra ark' every day. After this, I am not supposed to take any other medicine for coronavirus. I am not affected by coronavirus infection. I believe God will keep me protected as I am using this medicine of 'gaumutra ark'," PTI had quoted the Bhopal MP as saying.

The BJP MP from Bhopal made the announcement via Twitter on Monday, urging those who came in contact with her to get themselves tested.

In a tweet, just a few hours after the commencement of Parliament's Budget session, Thakur said: "Today my corona report is positive. I am under the supervision of doctors. All those who came in contact with me in two days are urged to be alert and also get the corona test done if required. We are concerned about you."

The Budget session will commence under the shadow of coronavirus, with nearly 875 employees of Parliament have tested positive for the virus.
