Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

Executive Summary: The Indian Nursing Council (INC) issues an order, effective September 8, 2025, withdrawing recognition from several nursing institutions in Gujarat due to their failure to meet statutory inspection requirements and suitability standards. The decision follows a notice issued on December 3, 2024, to the Gujarat state government, which did not provide any recommendations regarding the institutions' suitability. Effective March 19, 2025, graduates from these institutions will only be entitled to be registered within the State of Gujarat. Key Points / Main Content: Withdrawal of Recognition: The INC has withdrawn recognition from the listed nursing institutions in Gujarat under Section 14 of the Indian Nursing Council Act, 1947. The decision is based on the institutions' failure to apply for mandatory inspections and their unsuitability for conducting nursing programs. Notification and Consultation: A notice was issued to the Commissioner Health & Ex-Officio Secretary, Public Health & Family Welfare, Gujarat, on December 3, 2024, regarding the proposed withdrawal. The Gujarat Nurses Midwives Council also received a copy of the notice. The State Government was requested to submit recommendations regarding the suitability of the institutions, but no response was received. List of Affected Institutions: The order lists 29 nursing institutions in Gujarat offering ANM, GNM, B.Sc. Nursing, M.Sc. Nursing, and Post Basic B.Sc. Nursing programs. (See complete list in original document). Registration Restriction: Effective March 19, 2025, individuals holding qualifications from the listed institutions are only eligible for registration within the State of Gujarat. Impact Analysis: Nursing Institutions in Gujarat: Impact: Loss of national recognition for the listed institutions, potentially affecting student enrollment and the institutions' reputation. Action Required: The institutions must cease representing their qualifications as nationally recognized and inform current and prospective students about the change in registration eligibility. Students and Graduates of Affected Institutions: Impact: Limitation of registration eligibility to the State of Gujarat, which may affect career opportunities outside the state. Action Required: Graduates and current students should be aware that their qualifications will only allow them to register as nurses within Gujarat, potentially requiring them to seek alternative education or career paths if they wish to practice elsewhere. Gujarat Nurses Midwives Council: Impact: Must update its registry to reflect the changed status of graduates from the listed institutions and only allow registration within the state. Action Required: Update registration processes to reflect the new limitations for graduates of the affected institutions. Potential Employers (Outside Gujarat): Impact: May not be able to hire graduates from these institutions unless they meet additional requirements for registration in their respective states/territories. Action Required: Verify the registration eligibility of potential employees from the listed institutions if located outside of Gujarat. Indian Nursing Council: Impact: Enforcement of the order and monitoring of the affected institutions and the Gujarat Nurses Midwives Council. Action Required: Monitor the affected institutions and the Gujarat Nurses Midwives Council to ensure compliance with the order.
