Seven Maharashtra Nursing Colleges See Zero Admissions

Seven Maharashtra Nursing Colleges See Zero Admissions

In Maharashtra, seven private nursing colleges had no students admitted for the B.Sc.

Nursing course this year.

This happened even though the rules for who can get in were made easier.

Out of 16,530 available seats, only 10,957 were filled, leaving over 5,500 seats empty.

Most of these empty seats are in private colleges.

Government colleges, however, had almost all their seats filled.

Experts say this shows that there are too many private nursing colleges, and the government should do something about it.
