National Service Scheme
Introduction
National Service Scheme (NSS) was introduced in 1969 with the primary objective of
developing the personality and character of the student youth through voluntary community
service. ‘Education through Service’ is the purpose of the NSS. The ideological orientation of
the NSS is inspired by the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi. Very appropriately, the motto of NSS
is “NOT ME, BUT YOU”. An NSS volunteer places the ‘community’ before ‘self’.
Objectives of NSS:
NSS aims at developing the following qualities/ competencies among the volunteers:
a) To understand the community in which the NSS volunteers work and to understand
themselves in relation to their community;
b) To identify the needs and problems of the community and involve themselves in problem-
solving exercise;
c) To develop among themselves a sense of social and civic responsibility;
d) To utilize their knowledge in finding practical solutions to individual and community
problems;
e) To gain skills in mobilizing community participation;
f) To acquire leadership qualities and democratic values;
g) To develop capacity to meet emergencies and natural disasters; and
h) To practice national integration and social harmony.
NSS attempts to establish meaningful linkages between ‘Campus and Community’, ‘College
and Village’ and ‘Knowledge and Action’.
Vision
National Service Scheme (NSS) The vision is to build the youth with the mind and spirit to
serve the society and work for the social uplift of the down-trodden masses of our nation as a
movement.
Motto
The Motto of NSS "Not Me But You", reflects the essence of democratic living and upholds
the need for self-less service. NSS helps the students develop appreciation to other person's
point of view and also show consideration to '/other living beings. It emphasizes the idea of
community service, social responsibility, and empathy, inspiring volunteers to contribute to
nation-building. Through this motto, NSS instills the value of unity in diversity, teamwork,
and dedication to serving society with humility and compassion.
The NSS Badge Proud to Serve the Nation:
All the youth volunteers who opt to serve the nation through the NSS led community
service wear the NSS badge with pride and a sense of responsibility towards helping
needy.
The Konark wheel in the NSS badge having 8 bars signifies the 24 hours of a the day,
reminding the wearer to be ready for the service of the nation round the clock i.e. for
24 hours.
Red colour in the badge signifies energy and spirit displayed by the NSS volunteers.
The Blue colour signifies the cosmos of which the NSS is a tiny part, ready to
contribute its share for the welfare of the mankind.
