Even as the state shows no sign of healing from the COVID-19 crisis, medical students are now faced with the challenge of appearing for their final examinations, which the government has decided to conduct in July. Even though Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari has given his nod for conducting the examinations, students and parents are of the opinion that it-s an impossible task given the health crisis the state is going through.

According to the students, many of them have already returned to their hometowns and hence it was difficult for them to attend the practical sessions. Moreover, many of the PG students are on COVID-19 duty and haven-t had any time to study for their exams.
