National Service Scheme

Objectives

The National Service Scheme (NSS) was evolved and introduced by the Government of India in the year 1969. The objective of NSS is to develop a sense of participation amongst students in nation building through Social Activities.  NSS is not limited to the classroom education but also develops a sense of social responsibility, tolerance, teamwork and cooperation. NSS plays a vital role to the overall  development  of the student’s personality.

NSS Regular Activities:

NSS volunteers generally work with villages and social agencies to complete 120 hours of regular activities during an academic year. As per the Guidelines of National Service Scheme, a volunteer is expected to remain in constant touch with the community for social service. Hence, it is of vital importance that a particular village/slum is selected for implementation of NSS programmes. The activities like tree plantation, Organ donation awareness rally, road safety awareness activity, cleanliness campaign, Toilet Day celebration, Indian Constitution Day etc.
