This social venture of setting up a Nursing School in Numaligarh has been initiated by NRL under its CSR activities; which amongst others focuses on skill development and generating livelihood opportunities for the local people.

In the last financial year 2015-16, NRL sponsored 14 girls from the neighbourhood under its flagship scheme,  ‘Uttoron’,  for undertaking Nursing courses in Downtown University, Guwahati. The proposed ‘VK NRL Nursing School’ is expected to  enroll more and more local girls and boys and train them in the noble profession of Nursing, thereby providing ample opportunities for their employment in the State and elsewhere.
