About NSS

National Service Scheme was formed in India in 1969. The main goal of NSS is to foster national integration and social harmony, its motto being 'Not Me, But You'. The symbol of the NSS, the giant Rath Wheel of the world famous Konark Sun Temple situated in Orissa, India stands for continuity as well as change and symbolizes the continuous striving of the NSS for social change. The eight bars in the wheel represent the 24 hours of a day. The red colour indicates that the volunteer is full of young blood that is lively, active, energetic and full of high spirit. The navy blue colour indicates the cosmos of which the NSS is tiny part, ready to contribute its share for the welfare of the mankind.
NSS helps students understand the community in which they work: it uses their knowledge to find practical solutions to community problems. NSS creates a sense of social and civic responsibility in the students who enroll as volunteers.500 enthusiastic volunteers (undergraduates) actively participate in various social service activities. The NSS activities are of two types - one is the regular activity and the other is the special camp. The NSS volunteers who have completed two years of service and who have completed 20 hours of service in two academic years and the special camp (which is for ten days) are awarded certificates.
The regular activities of the NSS include participation in rallies, seminars, camps, programs on social evils, gender issues, health, road safety, the environment and AIDS awareness programs. NSS volunteers do the campus cleaning, planting tree saplings, etc. Every year these three units conduct 7 days special NSS campus in the nearby villages. NSS volunteers do the above national awareness programmes in the adapted villages.
Besides these activities, the NSS units also organize various camps like eye camps, blood donation camps and health camps. Apart from service to society, these activities give the student volunteers greater exposure and the ability to deal with social issues.
