The Kerala University of Health Sciences (KUHS) has decided to continue with the final year MBBS examinations as scheduled, dismissing the demand of students to postpone them.
The decision was taken at a meeting of statutory officers of the KUHS and Principals of all affiliated medical colleges along with the Dean of Faculty of Medicine and the Chairperson, Board of Studies (Medicine UG Clinical), convened by Vice Chancellor Mohanan Kunnummal on Friday.
The urgent meeting was held in the wake of a call by final year students to boycott the examinations alleging that they were being held without providing sufficient clinical training and practical classes due to the COVID-19 restrictions.
