X
A Union Minister's tweet requesting a hospital bed has taken the social media like a storm. The tweet has raised several questions on the prevailing Covid-19 situations and scarcity of facilities.

The other day, Union minister of state for road transport and highways Vijay Kumar Singh tweeted that beds are not available in Ghaziabad. My brother needs a bed for Corona treatment, he tweeted in Hindi.

"@dm_ghaziabad Please check this out. Please help us, my brother needs a bed for corona treatment. Now beds are not available in Ghaziabad.@shalabhmani@PankajSinghBJP@Gen_VKSingh," his tweet in Hindi loosely translates.

His tweet went viral on social media and everyone expressed their concerns as if a Central Minister's brother cannot get a bed for treatment, what would be the situation of a normal person.

After his tweet created quite a sensation, the Union Minister stepped in to issue a clarification on his sensational tweet. In a clarification tweet, the Union Minister said, the tweet he made was a forward of a tweet to a Direct message.

The former chief of Army staff in a tweet even slammed the trollers and a few channels who have targeted him over his tweet and said the person for whom he had made is not his brother by bond, but he is a brother by humanity.

“Am amazed at IQ level of trawls and fastest finger channels. Tweet was forward of a tweet to DM and says "please look into this". Forwarded tweet is in hindi. Bed needs have been sorted out by DM & CMO , hence to DM. Suggest correct your understanding,” Mr. Singh's clarification tweet reads.
