If you are India's Health Minister, the challenges that you face are many. Just to name a few, malnourishment in kids, lack of access to basic health care, sorry state of public health system just to name a few.
But our current health minister, the esteemed Anbumani Ramadoss is more worried about the prevalence of pub culture and holding companies that make fairness cream accountable.
Musings about pub culture being against Indian ethos or fairness creams not making you white enough, would not in any way shape or form provide access to basic health care needs facing the millions of Indias.
For a country that prides itself in its rich history of medicine including the Ayurveda, and a country that wants to be the go to destination for health acre, this current lack of access to basic healthcare services to millions of Indians is totally unacceptable. I for one would like to hear Dr Ramadoss say "Lack of basic healthcare to every Indian is unacceptable and against Indian Ethos". That would be a good start
