National
Service Scheme (NSS):
Introduction: NSS is a Centrally Sector Scheme.
The Scheme was launched in the year 1969 with the primary objective of
developing the personality and character of the student youth through voluntary
community service. 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”.
Programme Structure: NSS is being implemented
in Senior Secondary Schools, Colleges and Universities. The design of the NSS
envisages that each educational institution covered under the Scheme has at
least one NSS unit comprising of normally 100 student volunteers, led by a
teacher designated as Programme Officer (PO). Each NSS unit adopts a village or
slum for taking up its activities. An NSS volunteer is required to undertake
the following work/ activities:
§ Regular
NSS Activity: Each NSS volunteer is required to put in minimum 120 hours of
community service per year for two years, i.e., total 240 hours. This work is
undertaken in villages/ slums adopted by NSS unit or school/ college campuses,
usually after study hours or during weekends.
§ Special
Camping Programme: Each NSS unit organises a Special Camp of 7 days’ duration in
adopted villages or urban slums during vacations with some specific projects by
involving the local communities. Each volunteer is required to participate in a
Special Camp once during the 2-year period.
Nature of Activities under NSS: Briefly, the
NSS volunteers work on issues of social relevance, which keep evolving in
response to the needs of the community, through regular and special camping
activities. Such issues include (i) literacy and education, (ii) health, family
welfare and nutrition, (iii) environment conservation, (iv) social service
programmes, (v) programmes for empowerment of women, (vi) programmes connected
with economic development activities, (vii) rescue and relief during
calamities, etc.
