Skipping Covid-19 Safety Sessions: GMC Patiala Revokes suspension of 366 MBBS Students after medicos apologize
Patiala: Days after the suspension of 366 final year MBBS students of Government Medical College of Patiala (GMC Patiala) for not attending two Covid-19 safety protocol sessions, the principal of the institution has now issued orders to cancel the suspension after the medicos submitted a written apology.
Confirmation to this effect has been given by the Principal of the medical college Principal Dr Rajan Singla who stated that the medicos have "apologized for their mistake – in writing. They can now attend their classes as earlier."
The GMC management had taken strict action against the MBBs students 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. The concerned authorities had held the two sessions after many medicos in Punjab, including three at GMC, Patiala, were tested positive for the coronavirus.
