Many Medical Students who were staying in Hostels & preparing for written Exams scheduled in the middle of the pandemic have tested positive. The health of young students should be the top priority of the government so considering the severity of the current Pandemic Government should immediately delay all Professional Written Exams scheduled in January 2021 to keep the lives of thousands of students out of Danger. Honorable authorities are requested to please take swift notice and order the delay of physical written exams. Not only in LMDC but the hostels ao all medical colleges are coronavirus hotspots.
Therefore, the Promote Medical Students demand the arrangement of the online exam or promote medical students without it as do not want to waste their years of studies and do not wish to compromise on their health.
