The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) has sent an appeal to the MPs and MLAs who have been contacting the institute with letters seeking treatment, medical investigations, and bed for the recommended patients. AIIMS, a tertiary level hospital, caters to the poorest population from across the country.

The AIIMS doctors have expressed their difficulty of treating and managing existing patients, when they need to manage such special recommendations sent by the MPs and MLAs on a daily basis. They also want to bring to notice the misuse of power and facility, when such recommendations are sent frequently.
