The Chief Secretary, after considering the college applications, approved the proposal to add 1790 new seats. He directed the establishment of a single-window system for the operation of nursing courses. It takes considerable time to process applications from various institutions across the state at the district, Director General, and government levels. A single-window system will simplify this process and expedite decision-making.
He urged that work in this direction begin immediately. A concrete and transparent SOP should be developed at the institution level for the various stages of starting new courses, from submitting applications for seat increases to their approval.
