the State Government was requested to submit their recommendations to the Council as respects Suitability of the

Whereas, the Council has not received any recommendation from the State Government as respects the case
of Florence Nightingale School of Nurisng. Even the institution, Florence Nightingale 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

clinical and teaching facilities. These are serious deficiencies which constitute that the institution is unable to run
GNM Course.
