A list of meritorious students, who will be awarded medals, certificates and cash prizes, has been prepared and the names of the medal winners will be decided in a day.
Dr Sheetal Verma, a Hewett Medal winner in 2005 and spokesperson of the KGMU, said the first batch of MBBS passed out of KGMU in 1916.
“It’s always tough to decide on medals as a lot of students perform well in academics as well as extra-curricular activities,” she said.
