In a letter addressed to the president of RDA, AIIMS Registrar has said, “The content of this tweet was political in nature on the Delhi State Assembly Elections. It has also been brought to notice that this tweet was posted by the President of the RDA.”

The letter further says, “This has been viewed seriously by the Competent Authority. President, RDA is required to give his explanation regarding the above tweet within 48 hours from the date of issue of this memorandum.”

The letter, dated 21 February, has been marked to the Director and the Dean of AIIMS Delhi.

A member of RDA of AIIMS Delhi, without wishing to be named, confirmed that such a letter was sent to the RDA president. Several messages sent to the spokesperson of AIIMS Delhi, however, went unanswered.

This correspondent contacted president of RDA of AIIMS Delhi, Adarsh Pratap Singh, but he disconnected the call as soon as this correspondent introduced herself as a journalist.

Several messages subsequently sent for a response were read but not answered.

Singh‘s Facebook account shows he posted the same tweet on his Facebook wall after the results of the recent Assembly elections in New Delhi.
