Now for the Tamil Nadu MGR Medical University, the Association in its letter said, "The University has announced tentative exam dates on August. We feel this is an extraordinary situation to conduct the exams. All medical colleges have been converted as COVID hospitals and the faculties are posted in COVID wards. So, it will be difficult to engage them as examiners and invigilators. MoreChennaiover, all the postgraduate students have been posted in COVID duty since March, it will be unfair to make them appear for exams without giving adequate time to prepare."

As per a recent report in The New Indian Express, the SDPGA further mentioned that it will be difficult to get clinical materials for practical examinations. " SDPGA demands the government not to conduct university exams both theory and practicals and award marks based on internal assessments," the letter added.
