Message From The First Director Principal 

It gives me great pleasure especially as Founder Director Principal of Govt. Medical College Chandigarh that those who graduated from this institute are planning for an e-mail based newsletter for the alumni of GMC Chandigarh.

I have great memories of my association with this college, started in 1991. The faculty and students of this college gave me full support for overcoming the initial teething problems. We worked as a team. The students of the college were the cream from Chandigarh and surrounding area. They were brilliant, disciplined and worked with devotion and performed their duties to the best of their ability for the patient care. I am extremely happy to learn that what I thought were children when they joined this medical college, are now holding some of the best positions in the medical fraternity in India and abroad. I can recall vividly my interaction with the first batch of medical students since it was for the first time in my life that I had the opportunity to admit 1^st batch of medical students in this budding institute, which now is recognized as one of the best Medical Colleges of India, in such a short span of time.

I send my best wishes for all those who qualified form GMCH Chandigarh and hope that all of them will excel in their life.
