GMC Patiala suspends 366 MBBS students for being absent during Covid-19 Safety sessions
Patiala: Cracking a whip on 366 final year MBBS students, the Government Medical College of Patiala (GMC Patiala) has suspended the medicos for not attending two important sessions on the implementation of Covid-19 safety measures on the campus.
The medical students have been barred from attending any further classes and they are also denied permission to appear in "send-ups" which is a test that takes place every year for internal assessment a month before the final examination.
According to a recent media report by Hindustan Times, the GMC management took strict action against the medicos after they failed to attend the two sessions which were being held by the medical college to make the students aware of the Covid-19 safety protocols that should be implemented and followed on the campus.
