Act passed in parliament in 1956 - independence to AIIMS...

In 1956 the Act was approved by the parliament granting AIIMS autonomy, or independence. Ultimately, queen Elizabeth II of england dedicated AIIMS's first building on january 27, 1961. But at the time, AIIMS lacked a hospital of its own. 50 medical students were involved in the founding of the AIIMS education and Research Department. Safdarjung Hospital used to be the location of student practicals. In 1962, AIIMS acquired a second building following this. Subsequently, this is where clinical research and patient therapy began.
