B.Sc Nursing is a four-year degree, and Post Basic B.Sc Nursing is a shorter degree route for candidates who already hold GNM. All are approved separately by the Indian Nursing Council, so an institution approved for one is not automatically approved for another.

How current is this district listing?

Listings are rebuilt each time a regulator publishes a new approved-institution list, generally once or twice a year. Each page shows when its sources were last checked. Institutions that drop out of a new list are kept and marked rather than removed, because regulators sometimes restore them at the next cycle.
