The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) New Delhi has withdrawn the provisional seat allotment results for the Nursing Officer Recruitment Common Eligibility Test (NORCET) 9. The results, originally published on November 3 , were pulled due to pending updates in the distribution of reserved seats across different categories in several participating institutes. This withdrawal also invalidates all previously submitted acceptances for the NORCET 9 seat allotment.
Candidates affected by this decision must monitor the official AIIMS website, aiimsexams.ac.in , for further announcements. AIIMS expects to publish revised NORCET 9 seat allotment results within one week.
Reason for Withdrawal
AIIMS issued an official notice confirming the withdrawal. The notice stated, "The result of the provisional seat allocation for NORCET-09, published on November 3, stands withdrawn in view of the pending updated distribution of reserved seats across different categories in some Institutes." This issue primarily concerns ensuring accurate allocation of seats to various reservation categories as per government guidelines across different institutions participating in the recruitment drive.
The decision to withdraw the results underscores the institute’s commitment to transparent and fair recruitment. Reserved seats are allocated based on specific government regulations for different social categories, including Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), Other Backward Classes (OBC), and Economically Weaker Sections (EWS). Ensuring the accurate distribution of these seats across multiple institutes requires precise verification and allocation procedures. Any discrepancies in this process necessitate a complete review to maintain equity and legal compliance for all applicants.
NORCET 9 Recruitment Overview
The AIIMS NORCET 9 recruitment drive aims to fill 3,500 vacancies for Nursing Officer posts. These positions are distributed across various medical institutes throughout India, including AIIMS facilities in New Delhi and other cities, as well as the Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER). This large-scale recruitment supports public health services nationwide.
The NORCET examination process is conducted in two stages: prelims and mains. The main results for NORCET 9 were declared on October 3 . A total of 13,996 candidates successfully qualified in the NORCET 9 stage 2 exam. Among these qualified candidates, 4,233 were males and 9,726 were females . Initially, 19,332 candidates were shortlisted to appear for the NORCET 9 exam.
Seat Allotment Process and Next Steps
Seat allotment for qualified candidates relies on their NORCET 9 main result rank and the choices they submitted during the application process. Candidates who receive a seat allotment must report to the respective college to confirm their position. Failure to report and confirm their seat will result in the cancellation of their provisional allotment.
With the withdrawal of the initial results, all candidates who previously received an allotment or were awaiting one must await the revised publication. No action regarding acceptance or reporting should be taken until the new results are available on the official portal.
All candidates are advised to regularly check aiimsexams.ac.in for the revised seat allotment list and any subsequent instructions. Updates will be posted directly on this official website as soon as they become available.
