“The Indian Nursing Council records show that these institutions have failed to apply for statutory inspection for several years and were found deficient, unsuitable for conducting nursing programmes,” according to the official order by the INC.
The Indian Nursing Council (INC) has withdrawn recognition of a total of 32 nursing institutions across Bihar and Assam for failing to apply for statutory inspections for ‘several years.’ The council's decision comes after the state governments and the Nurses and Midwives councils failed to submit its recommendations regarding the suitability of these colleges.
Due to prolonged non-compliance of the INC rules , the council said that it will limit the registration of graduates from the selected colleges to state only.
“The Indian Nursing Council records show that these institutions have failed to apply for statutory inspection for several years and were found deficient, unsuitable for conducting nursing programmes,” according to the official order by the INC.
Any candidate holding a recognised qualification from these institutions shall be entitled to be registered only in the State of Assam and Bihar respectively. The INC said that the colleges were conducting nursing programmes after recognition by the State governments and Nurses and Midwives Council of both the states.
