Pooja Singhal, the suspended Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer of Jharkhand, was today re-admitted to the Ranchi-based Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) after her health deteriorated.

Doctors examined her at RIMS’s New Trauma Center and Central Emergency and admitted in room A-11 of the paying ward.
She was admitted to RIMS earlier also due to breathing problems and other medical issues. Singhal was discharged from RIMS on 27 November.
RIMS PRO Dr Rajeev Ranjan said that Pooja Singhal was undergoing treatment under the supervision of RIMS doctors headed by Dr Vidyapati, Head of the Department of Medicine. The doctors said earlier the treatment of migraine was going on under the Department of Neurology. It could be the cause of headache, they said, adding that a thorough investigation would be done to diagnose the exact ailment.
