All the skill laboratories have come up after 2011, she said at the 'Nursing Conclave' organized by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).
"No such skill laboratories were in place before 2011. As many as 365 nursing seats have been added already while 960 more are expected to come up this year in nursing institutes," she said.
