The bridge course announced by JSS Medical College for medical students displaced from Ukraine due to war and owing to COVID-19 from China, has received overwhelming response within 24 hours of its announcement.
In all, 511 students from across India of which 321 are from Karnataka, have evinced interest and the course is expected to commence during the second week of May.
This was stated by Suttur Mutt seer Shivaratri Deshikendra Swamiji at whose behest the college authorities explored various ways of helping out the war-affected Indian medical students whose studies have been disrupted.
