"We don't received any communication from @SoodFoundation or @SonuSood. Requested patient is in Home isolation and stable. No bed issues @BrahmapurCorp is monitoring it. @CMO_Odisha," On Monday, the Collector and District Magistrate of Ganjam's official Twitter account posted, tagging the Twitter handle of the Odisha Chief Minister's Office.
The tweet is a retweet of Sonu Sood's tweet from May 15th, which reads: "Not to worry. Bed has been arranged at Ganjam City Hospital, Berhampur (DCHC) @SoodFoundation."
Sonu Sood, who was able to share screenshots of his chat with the patient's family, where a bed was requested and delivered, was not one to be called "fake" for all of his excellent work in saving countless people and their lives.
Sonu, in response to the District Magistrate's tweet on Monday, released screenshots of a WhatsApp chat in which he stated that he had arranged for the bed after the patient's family asked him for assistance.
On Monday, Sonu tweeted: "Sir, We never claimed that we approached you, it's the needy who approached us and we arranged the bed for him, attached are the chats for your reference. Ur office is doing a great job & u can double-check that we had helped him too. Have DM you his contact details. Jai Hind."
The DM then replied to Sonu Sood and commended his great work.
He said, "Our intention was not to criticize your system. We have our own TEAM GANJAM to ensure bed availability for patients who work 24*7. Still, it’s our duty to investigate if any issues about bed availability. That’s why we cleared the facts. You and your Organization doing a great job," tweeted the Collector and District Magistrate of Ganjam.
