Earlier, BJ Medical College in Ahemdabad had decided to conduct online classes instead of on-campus classes for 1st-year MBBS students. The decision had come after four first-year MBBS students of the college were tested positive for COVID-19. Some other medical colleges in Gujarat also followed BJ College and called off on-campus classes a few days ago.
