NSS Volunteers

The National Service Scheme (NSS) is an Indian government-sponsored public service program conducted by the Department of Youth Affairs and Sports of the Government of India . Popularly known as NSS, the scheme was launched in Gandhiji's Centenary year, 1969. Aimed at developing student's personality through community service, NSS is a voluntary association of young people in Colleges, Universities and at +2 level working for a campus-community linkage. The cardinal principle of the NSS programme is that it is organised by the students themselves, and both students and teachers through their combined participation in community service, get a sense of involvement in the tasks of nation building. In India, the idea of involving students in the task of National Service dates back to the time of Mahatama Gandhi, the father of the nation. The central theme which he tried to impress upon his students audience time and again, was that they should always keep before them their social responsibility.
