National Service Scheme (NSS)

The National Service Scheme is a Central-sector Scheme of the Government of India, implemented by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports. Launched in 1969, the birth centenary year of the Father of our Nation, Mahatma Gandhi. The basic concept of the National Service Scheme is to give an extended dimension to the Higher Education system and orient young students to selfless service towards community work while they are studying in an educational institution. The motto of NSS is ‘Not Me; But You’. This reflects the essence of democratic living and upholds the need for selfless service.
