Ahmedabad 382415, Gujarat is recognized by State Government of Gujarat and Gujarat Nursing Council to conduct B.Sc(N) & Post Basic B.Sc(N) Course. Whereas, a notice no. 18-11/5555-INC dated 16/05/2023 for withdrawal of Recognition under section 14 of Indian Nursing Council Act, 1947 addressed to the Commissioner (Health), & Ex-Officio Secretary (Public Health & Family Welfare) Block No. 05, 1st Floor Old Sachiwalay, Dr. Jivraj Bhavan, Sector No. 10, Gandhinagar – 382010, Gujarat was issued. Copy of the notice dated 16/05/2023 was also enclosed to Navkar Institute of Nursing situated at Giriver Pride, Opp. Hotel Safari, Beside New Odhav Over Bridge, Ahmedabad, Distt. Ahmedabad 382415, Gujarat. 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 Navkar Institute of Nursing. Even the institution, Navkar Institute 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 08/12/2022 would show that the institution is deficient in many respects especially those relating to deficiencies i.e., clinical and teaching facilities. These are serious deficiencies which constitute that the institution is unable to run B.Sc(N) & Post Basic B.Sc(N) Course. Now therefore, the Council exercising powers under section 14(3) (b) declares that with effect from 04/08/2023 any person holding a recognized qualification of B.Sc(N) & Post Basic B.Sc(N)) from Navkar Institute of Nursing situated at Giriver Pride, Opp. Hotel Safari, Beside New Odhav Over Bridge, Ahmedabad, Distt.
