Aliasing rm to rm -i for sudo

[R (Chandra) Chandrasekhar]

Dear Folks,

I have aliases for rm to be rm -i in the .bashrc files for an ordinary 
user as well as for root so:

alias rm='rm --interactive'

When I do rm <filename> as an ordinary user, I am asked to confirm deletion.

Likeweise, after sudo -s -H, when I do rm <filename> I am asked to 
confirm deletion.

However, if I do sudo rm <filename> deletion proceeds without 
interactive confirmation.

How may I alias rm to rm -i for sudo?

Thank you.
