Core Purpose

Indian Nursing Council withdraws recognition of DPS School of Nursing for ANM course effective 26/10/2024 due to deficiencies.

Detailed Summary

The Indian Nursing Council issues a withdrawal order for the recognition of DPS School of Nursing, Gaya, Bihar, to conduct the ANM course, effective from 26/10/2024. This decision follows a notice issued on 09.05.2024 for withdrawal of recognition, prompted by deficiencies highlighted in an inspection report dated 26.12.2023, particularly concerning clinical and teaching facilities. The State Government of Bihar did not provide recommendations, and the institution did not respond to the notice. Consequently, under Section 14 of the Indian Nursing Council Act, 1947, the council declares that ANM qualifications from DPS School of Nursing obtained after 26/10/2024 will only be valid for registration within the State of Bihar.
