The NSS
symbol is based on the "Rath Wheel" of the Konark Sun Temple of
Orissa. The giant wheel portrays the cycles of creation, preservation and
release and signifies the movement in life across time and space. The design of
the symbol, a simplified form of Sun Chariot Wheel primarily depicts movement.
The wheel signifies the progressive cycle of life. It also stands for dynamism
and progressive outlook of youth.
NSS
UNIT & PROGRAM OFFICER
The NSS Unit
consists of 100 student volunteers. The Program Officer is expected to motivate
the student youth to understand the values and philosophy of NSS. The overall
functions of Program Officer are to help the students to plan, implement and
evaluate the activities of NSS under his/her charge and give proper guidance
and directions to the student volunteers.
NSS
STUDENT VOLUNTEERS
Any student
enrolled as a NSS volunteer, as per NSS Manual should put in at least 240 hours
of useful social work in a continuous period of two years (i.e. 120 hours per
year). A work diary is to be maintained by each NSS volunteer, which will help
him/her in the assessment in his/her performance. Such volunteer is eligible to
get NSS Service Certificate from the colleges. The Service Certificate given in
the NSS Manual should be strictly adhered.
Activities
of NSS Volunteers and Adoption of Village
The
Activities under NSS are two-fold, viz.
1) Regular
activities, which are undertaken during the working days of the semester, and
2) Special
Camping activities for 7 days duration in the adopted village/urban slum during
vacation. Each NSS unit in the college is expected to adopt a nearby
village/slum and work for its all-round development. Regular activities and
special campus should preferably be organized in the adopted village/rural
unit/slum for this purpose.
REGULAR
ACTIVITIES
Under this,
students undertake various Programs in the adopted villages, College Campuses
and urban slums during weekends or after college hours. We are proud to note
that until this academic year, the NSS units of our institution have conducted
the Mega and highly useful “Blood Donation Camps”. Our NSS units have been
creating records in mobilizing blood donors in our students.
