Chandigarh: The Department of Gastroenterology, Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER), Chandigarh, is organizing the 9th PGI Gastrointestinal (GI) Emergencies Update from November 14 to 16, 2025. This national-level academic event will bring together leading gastroenterologists, physicians, and trainees from across the country for focused discussions and hands-on learning on the theme of Gastrointestinal Emergencies.
The conference aims to enhance understanding and promote evidence-based management of emergencies related to the gastrointestinal tract and liver. Gastrointestinal emergencies are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and timely, goal-directed intervention during the crucial early hours can significantly improve patient outcomes.
The scientific program will cover a wide range of emergency conditions, including gastrointestinal bleeding, acute pancreatitis, complicated gallbladder disease, and complications of liver failure such as bleeding, infection, and hepatic encephalopathy. Dedicated sessions will also address intestinal obstruction, severe inflammatory bowel disease, corrosive ingestion, and critical care management of patients in the intensive care unit.
Speaking about the event, Prof Usha Dutta, Chairperson of the Organizing Committee, emphasized that the ninth edition of this program reflects the department’s sustained commitment to bridging the knowledge gap between frontline doctors managing emergencies and specialists in the field. “Our goal is to empower the first-contact physicians with the skills and confidence needed to handle GI emergencies effectively and improve patient outcomes,” she said.
Gastrointestinal bleeding—a common but potentially life-threatening emergency—will be one of the key focus areas. Experts will discuss the causes, including peptic ulcers, esophageal tears, and variceal bleeding in chronic liver disease, as well as the latest endoscopic techniques and therapeutic tools available for effective management.
Acute pancreatitis, another major GI emergency, will be covered extensively. This condition, often triggered by alcohol intake, gallstones, or high lipid levels, requires prompt recognition and early intervention, particularly in the first 72 hours. Sessions will address preventive strategies, early diagnosis, and comprehensive management protocols.
The conference will also feature deliberations on liver-related emergencies, including acute liver failure, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (infected ascites), and renal and cerebral complications of chronic liver disease. Other topics include acute severe ulcerative colitis, biliary obstruction and cholangitis, and foreign body ingestion—all of which demand timely, multidisciplinary management.
A hands-on training workshop will be held on November 14 2025 at Hotel Radisson RED, Mohali, led by Prof. S.K.Sinha, Dr. Jayanta Samanta, Dr. Abhirup Chatterjee. Participants will receive practical training through simulated models and case-based discussions. A special session on POCUS (Point-of-Care Ultrasound) will also be conducted to help residents and trainees enhance bedside diagnostic and procedural skills essential for managing GI emergencies.
The Organizing Chairperson of the conference is Prof. Usha Dutta, with Dr. Vishal Sharma and Dr. Jimil Shah served as Organizing Secretaries. The faculty includes distinguished experts from across India who will share the latest insights, research findings, and best practices in the management of gastroenterological emergencies.
Patients with gastrointestinal emergencies are often critically ill and require rapid, standardized care. This conference aims to provide a platform for meaningful knowledge exchange between experts and young physicians, ensuring that cutting-edge evidence and practical expertise translate into better patient outcomes. With rapid advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic modalities, such programs play a vital role in keeping healthcare professionals updated and prepared to deliver high-quality emergency care.

Chandigarh, November 2025: College is usually where love stories begin with friendships, crushes, canteen banter, and late-night confessions. However, COLORS’ latest offering Tu Juliet Jatt Di completely flips the narrative where a marriage happens first… then they go to college… and then love happens! This new-age campus romance follows two opposites whose lives are set to collide in the most unexpected way. Set against the lively backdrop of Chandigarh Prime University, this love story is filled with chemistry, chaos, and charm — turning ‘never’ into ‘forever.’ Meet Nawab (Syed Raza), a wealthy, carefree Jatt who lives life on his own terms – bold, spontaneous, and allergic to commitment. Heer (Jasmeet Kaur) is his complete contrast: ambitious, disciplined, practical, and determined to build a better future for her mother. Love is not a priority for her – it’s not even on the schedule. But when circumstances force them into marriage before college life even begins, the journey that follows is emotional, humorous, and full of unexpected sparks. Because sometimes, love doesn’t start with a feeling – it starts with fate.
Ahead of the show’s premiere, the lead cast- Sangita Ghosh, Jasmeet Kaur, and Syed Raza visited Chandigarh to celebrate the spirit of young love with students. The actors joined an engaging interaction at Underpass, Sector 17, where students came together to share their ‘Never Se Forever’ love stories, participate in a lively flashmob, and enjoy impromptu jamming sessions. The evening was filled with laughter, music, and heartfelt conversations as the cast connected with fans, bringing alive the show’s youthful energy and romantic essence.
Sameer Gogate, Business Head, Jiostar says, “At COLORS, we’ve always strived to bring stories that are bold, raw, heartfelt, and zinda-dil — narratives that strike a chord with audiences across generations. ‘Tu Juliet Jatt Di’ perfectly embodies that spirit. It captures the pulse of today’s youth while staying rooted in the vibrant culture of Punjab. More than just a campus romance, it’s a celebration of resilience, identity, ambition and young love — a reflection of how today’s generation balances ambition, friendship, dreams, and responsibility in their journey of growing up.”
Producer Sargun Mehta from Dreamiyata Entertainment says, “College is where identities are built – where you figure out who you are, who you refuse to be, and what you’re willing to fight for. With ‘Tu Juliet Jatt Di’, we wanted to explore a kind of love that is unusual, inconvenient, and transformative. Heer and Nawaab don’t complete each other; they challenge each other. The college romance unfolds in Chandigarh, a city that has given me so much love in my own journey. This is our fun and light-hearted take on love in which enemies become classmates, classmates become unexpected allies, and every test teaches a lesson no textbook can cover.”
Essaying the role of Nawab, Syed Raza says, “Usually, college is where love stories begin, with crushes, canteen banter, and late-night confessions. But Tu Juliet Jatt Di flips the script completely and that’s what makes the show so unique and unpredictable. Nawab is a guy who lives by his own rules. For him, college was supposed to be about fun, freedom, and fame until the studious Heer rattles him in a way no one ever has. ‘Tu Juliet Jatt Di’ is love in reverse, unpredictable, and refreshingly real.”
Taking on the role of Heer, Jasmeet Kaur says, “This show exquisitely captures the tug-of-war between responsibility and emotion, logic and heart. It’s about how life doesn’t always ask for your permission before turning upside down, and in that chaos, you might just find something real. ‘Tu Juliet Jatt Di’ doesn’t pretend that love is easy or picture-perfect — and that’s what makes it real. Heer is a girl who lives by plans and priorities; love was never on her timetable. Suddenly finding herself married to someone like Nawab—impulsive, unpredictable, and everything she isn’t—throws her world off balance. What I love about her is that she stands her ground: sharp, ambitious, and unafraid to call out nonsense, even when it comes from her own husband.”
Taking on the role of Gulaab, Sangita Ghosh says, “I’m portraying Gulaab – a mother whose love knows no boundaries and no brakes. She’s used to being the centre of every room she walks into and expects everyone, including her son, to move in her orbit. In protecting him from every scolding, failure, and harsh realities, her love has turned into control. What makes the character fascinating is that she believes every act of manipulation comes from love. As Nawab steps into college life with dreams, freedom, and love, Gulaab’s fear of losing influence deepens. It’s a story today’s youth will relate to – the tug between freedom and family expectations. Gulaab may be flawed and obsessive, but her heart beats only for her son and I hope viewers will feel the emotion behind every action that she takes.”
