Mon May 12 14:26:01 UTC 2025: ## Delhi High Court Orders Improvement to India’s Nurse Registration System
**NEW DELHI, May 12, 2025** – The Delhi High Court has mandated the Indian Nursing Council (INC) to revamp its Nurses Registration and Tracking System (NRTS). The order, issued on May 7th, responds to a writ petition filed by the Indian Professional Nurses Association (IPNA) citing deficiencies in the current digital platform.
The NRTS, designed to maintain a national database of registered nurses, has fallen short of its intended functionality. The IPNA argued for a streamlined and fully operational system meeting established standards.
The High Court’s directive compels the INC to issue a reasoned order within six weeks of receiving the court’s decision, outlining the steps taken to improve the NRTS. This decision marks a significant step towards modernizing India’s nursing registration process and ensuring a comprehensive, accurate national database.
