Does the skin penis of baby should be
I have been asked by elders at home to push the penis skin behind forcefully. My baby doesn't like it and not let me do that. While washing I try how much I can but elder saying it's not opened. Is this really should be done?

You can wait for another 3-4 years, you can also try gently now and then. Eventually it will be fine, don't do anything forcefully, other repercussions might happen.
After a certain age, you can visit a doctor for a physical check up and then take appropriate action.
Don't talk about it in front of your child as it can hamper his confidence or induce a thought of "something is wrong with him"
That's the last thing we want a child to think about.
Hope you get it.

Nothing to worry..
Do it as per ur kids comfort level...
If it doesn't open after 16 years of age then minor surgery is done to open and no issue in sexual activity in future.
It's called phimosis and surgery name circumcision.
If u still have doubt then consult privately to clear ur doubt
