No. 18-15/14543-INC.— In exercise of the powers conferred under Section 14 of Indian Nursing Council Act, 1947 (XLVIII of 1947), the Indian Nursing Council hereby issues the following order:— Whereas, Aster School of Nursing situated at No. 21/A, Doodabylakere Hessaraghata Road, Shivakota Yelahanka, Distt. Bangalore - 560089, Karnataka is recognized by State Government of Karnataka and Karnataka Nursing Council to conduct GNM course. Whereas, a notice no. 18-15/14543-INC dated 04/05/2022 for withdrawal of Recognition under section 14 of Indian Nursing Council Act, 1947 addressed to Principal Secretary, Health and Family Welfare Department, Room No. 105, 01st Floor, Vikas Souda, Bangalore – 560001, Karnataka was issued. Copy of the notice dated 04/05/2022 was also enclosed to Aster School of Nursing situated at Doodabylakere Hessaraghata Road, Shivakota Yelahanka, Distt. Bangalore - 560089, Karnataka. In the notice issued, the State Government was requested to submit their recommendations to the Council as respects Suitability of the nursing institution. Whereas, the Council has not received any recommendation from the State Government as respects the case of Aster School of Nursing. Even the institution Aster School of Nursing has not responded to the notices issued. Whereas, the Council has considered the matter in its entirety. Perusal of the inspection report dated 15/11/2021 would show that the institution is deficient in many respects especially those relating to deficiencies i.e., clinical and teaching facilities. Now therefore, the Council exercising powers under section 14(3)(b) declares that with effect from 08/09/2022 any person holding a recognized qualification of GNM from Aster School of Nursing situated at No. 21/A, Doodabylakere Hessaraghata Road, Shivakota Yelahanka, Distt.
