Gian Sagar students

At a review meeting with health minister Brahm Mohindra, chief secretary Karan Avtar Singh, BFUHS vice-chancellor Dr Raj Bahadur, secretary, medical education and research Vikas Partap, on Wednesday, Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh ordered to conduct special exams for the affected students to cover their academic loss.

The CM also directed the state health minister to initiate steps for issuance of a show-cause notice to Chintpurni Medical College, Pathankot, where classes are not being conducted regularly, and which has been asked by the Medical Council of India (MCI) to stop admissions for two sessions.

Earlier, a press release issued by the CM office said the CM had ordered shifting of students of both these colleges; but a revised release said students cannot be shifted at this stage in light of the show-cause notice as well as court cases.

The department’s decision on shifting of college students is likely to be announced by Monday after the expiry of show-cause notice already served to the Gian Sagar college management.
