JSS Medical College to help Indian students displaced from Ukraine

JSS Medical College in Mysuru has come to the support of displaced Indian students who were studying medical courses in several universities in Ukraine. Several thousands of Indian students had to be evacuated from the conflict zones after Russia invaded Ukraine in February this year.

JSS Mahavidyapeetha, which runs a host of educational institutions including JSS Medical College, has announced a bridge course as permissible under the law. JSS Medical College is a part of JSS Academy of Higher Education and Research (JSS AHER).

Thanks to the decision taken by Shivarathri Deshikendra Swamiji of Suttur Mutt, the students will be trained depending on which semester/year they were pursuing the course abroad. The facility is also available to Indian students pursuing medical courses in China and Russia as many could not return to those countries in view of the pandemic situation since the last two years.
