In another video, an AIIMS student shows off his comfortable hostel. He takes a satirical approach and warns others against joining the institute, citing its wide array of facilities.
"If you join AIIMS, a lot of people will call and congratulate you. This will be tiring. Who wants to be part of an institute where the government spends ₹1.7 crore on each medical student," he said.
He later showed the sports facilities and free WIFI available to the students, apart from academic opportunities for publishing their research as early as the first year in the institute. He further added that the institute holds several cultural events regularly.
