In the year 1969, National Service Scheme (NSS) was started
to serve the society. Both male and female wards can join in NSS and the
condition is that minimum two years of service. Every year each student have to participate at least 120 hours and the certificate
will be issued for the same.
Motto of NSS
“Not
Me But You”
The expression stands for two things:
1. Forgetting and surrendering the self, and
Rendering selfless service to others.
2. The word "Not" before "Me"
is to reduce the self to nothing and the Word "But" before
"You" can be expanded as follows: - “I
do not live for me but for you.” “The world is not only for me but to you
also.”
NSS
Symbol
The symbol of the National Service Scheme, as appearing on
the cover is based on the ‘Rath’ wheel of the Konark Sun Temple of Orissa. These giant wheels of the Sun
Temple portray the cycle of creation, preservation and release, and signify the
movement in life across time and space. The design of the symbol, a simplified
from of the Sun-chariot wheel, primarily depicts movement. The wheel signifies
the progressive cycle of life.
