Improving upon the existing infrastructure and the facilities at its constituent college GGSMC,
Faridkot, we had been able to admit four candidates each in DNB in the post graduate courses in the
department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology and Radiodiagnosis. This year we have been able to get 2
seats in the MD Course in Obstetrics and Gynaecology. This is a biggest achievement by the Baba Farid
University by bringing this college to such fame especially when few years back this Medical College
was existing in a small building and with not many facilities.

Copy of letter No.1/3/95-3PP-II/7332, dated 14th June, 1999
From: Chief Secretary to Government of Punjab to all the Heads of the department etc.
Subject: Issuance of certificate for the purpose of seeking admission to various educational/technical/professional
institutions in the state and also for employment.
Sir,
It has been brought to the notice of Government that educational authorities and institutions prescribe various
certificates regarding residence, SC/BC category and backward area etc. to be furnished by the students/candidates with the
applications forms for entrance examinations or employment in the formats and by the authorities different from those
prescribed by the Government departments. Cases have also been reported where the authorities concerned insist on
retaining original certificates and refuse to accept the attested photo copies of the certificates. All this results in harassment
and panic among the students/candidates and their parents/guardian, since they have to apply with such certificates to more
than one authorities simultaneously and within a limited period. The lists of certificates required at the time of applying for
CET/PMET/PMT and PAU are enclosed by way of illustration.
2. In order to overcome the difficulty mentioned above, it has been decided by the Government that following
procedure has been decided by the Government that the following procedure shall be followed meticulously by all the
educational and other authorities concerned:-
i) Certificates issued in the format and by the authorities prescribed by the Government Departments shall be accepted
as valid by all educational institutions and other authorities.
ii) Where a number of authorities have been authorized to issue the certificates there shall be no insistence on issue of
a certificate by any particular authority or by the highest authority indicated in the format.
iii)(a) In case of entrance examinations, no certificate should be called for in the first instance alongwith the application
form. It will be sufficient for the candidate seeking admission or other facility to indicate in the application from
whether he/she belongs to any particular category entitling him/her to certain concessions or facility. Requisite
certificates may be obtained only from the selected/wait listed candidates.
iii)(b) To further simplify the procedure attested copies of the certificates only shall be retained and original certificates if
required to be produced at the time of interview shall be returned immediately, thereafter.
iv) Parents/guardian or candidates can also obtain SC certificates from the Head of the institution where the candidate
has studied if the proof is available in the school records.
v) The persons who are employed in Government of India or any other State Government are to be treated at par with
the employees of the Government of Punjab in the matter of issue of Scheduled Caste certificate provided relevant
Scheduled Caste certificate exists in their service record. The Scheduled Caste certificate in such will be issued by the
respective Heads of Departments in the Proforma below:-
