Award bogus degrees, mint money: Inside story of Gwalior’s ‘nursing colleges’ in shut buildings

Author(s) : Sonal Matharu

Notes :

Four abandoned buildings have made a Gwalior primary school teacher a millionaire. His permanently closed private nursing and education colleges allegedly sold bogus degrees to hundreds of students each year, without running courses or giving them practical training in hospitals. An investigation showed Gwalior has become a hub for issuing nursing degrees in cheap private colleges affiliated to state universities and accredited by the Nursing Council.
