Device driver is something, which makes communications with the hardware. For device driver, u first have to learn internals of the particular OS. RTOS mainly deals with API's and it is mainly used to control flow of different tasks you have assigned. it is better if u r learning device driver first.

I dont know the exact material. U can fine pdf's in net based on OS internals and RTOS. For RTOS, u can go through the Proprietory API's and also standard API's. I have done a course on bangalore.. so, i dnt know the institutes in Delhi.

Actually In my view first of all you need to try writing some Custom code on Hardware (preferably ARM core like LPC2148 board ) like UART communication from PC, using internal ADC , keyboard interfacing .... then start integrating them in one application then you can use RTOS functionality to extend the codes ....

refer this will help you -
