Introduction
The college operates two National Service Scheme (NSS) units, each comprising 100 volunteers, one for men and one for women. The main objective of NSS is to instill a sense of social responsibility in students through community service, fostering their active involvement in constructive activities within the college campus and the adopted village of Burail, Sector 45, Chandigarh. Enrolment in NSS is open to students from all classes. To complete the NSS program successfully, each volunteer must dedicate a minimum of 120 hours of service during one session.
Motto
“Not Me, But You”
The NSS programs encompass four key aspects: institutional work, institutional projects, rural projects, and urban projects. These initiatives, whether conducted as part of regular activities or special camping, aim to address various societal needs, and contribute to community development. Through institutional work, volunteers engage in activities within the college campus to foster a culture of social responsibility and promote positive change among their peers. Institutional projects involve collaborative efforts to address specific issues or implement projects that benefit the college community.
Throughout the year, volunteers engage in various activities such as the Fit India Campaign, International Day of Yoga, SwachhtaPakhwada, AIDS prevention awareness rallies, Dengue prevention drives in the adopted village, self-defense training, teaching underprivileged children, and organizing collection drives for plastic and e-waste, among others. Additionally, 100 selected volunteers attend a Special Annual Camp. Those showing exceptional enthusiasm may also participate in Pre-RD camps, National Integration Camps, National Youth Festivals, Adventure Camps, and Cultural Fests organized by the Regional Directorate of NSS, Chandigarh.
NOTE: It is important to note that NCC cadets are ineligible to join NSS, and similarly, NSS volunteers are not permitted to participate in NCC or any other youth organization while they are active members of NSS.
