India, the
land of Ganga, Gautam and Gandhi, known as the
spiritual teacher of the
World, has always been glorifying inner piety,
peace and perfection which can be achieved through
the worship of God and service of mankind. Both
the National Service Scheme (NSS) and the UNICEF
are the organizations that are dedicated to the
upliftment and service of the people especially
women and children. After passing through various
committees and conferences from 1950 onwards on
the recommendation of Dr. C.D. Deshmukh, Prof.
K.G. Saiyidain and Dr. D.S. Kothari, the National
Service
Scheme was launched on September 24,1969 by Dr.
VKRV Rao the Education minister of India at that
time. It was very significant that this scheme
was started during the Gandhi Centenary Year, as
it was Gandhiji who inspired the Indian youth to
participate in the movement for Indian independence
and the social uplift of the down-trodden masses
of the country.

The father of the Nation was of
the view that "the first duty of the students
should be, not to treat their period of study as
one of the opportunities for indulgence in the
intellectual luxury, but for preparing themselves
for final dedication in the service of those on
whose back they were resting." He expected
of the students to do" something positive
so that the life of the villagers might be raised
to a higher material and moral level." |

The activities
undertaken under the National Service Scheme (NSS)
have included environmental
enrichment and conservation, health, family welfare
and nutrition programmes; awareness creation programmes
for the rights and status of women; works like rodent
control and pest management; weed control, soil testing
and soil health care; promotion of co-operative societies;
non formal education; and assistance to local authorities
in relief and rehabilitation work during the natural
calamities and natural emergencies. These activities
are done by an NSS unit of 100 volunteers throughout
the academic session under Normal activities programme
during the prescribed period of 120 hours of social
service. |

During these programmes the volunteers
bear in mind the motto of NSS-"NOT ME BUT YOU"-
and a badge on his or her breast. The badge was designed
after the wheel of the Konark Sun God Temple that
inspires the volunteers for social service. This
scheme is jointly sponsored and supervised by the
Department of Youth Affair and Sports, Ministry of
Human Resource development (now Ministry of Culture,
Youth Affair and Sports) Government of India and
State Government through the 888 NSS regional Center
and the NSS Cell of the State Secretariat. Under
the governance and guidance of the Vice-Chancellor,
the Programme Co-ordinator gets the programme organized
at the college level through the programme Officers
who work with the consent and approval of their principals.
From time to time the programme officers are trained
by the Training Orientation and Research Centers
(TORC's) and Training and orientation Centers (TOC's)
of the respective states and universities. |

Plantation

Plantation has always been a very important
item on the agenda of the N.S.S all over the country.
This university has organized several symposia, seminars,
workshops, orientation programmes discussing the
causes and consequences of environmental degradation
and encouraging plantation. Our scholarly, dynamic
and enthusiastic Vice-chancellor, Dr. R.P. Singh
in the N.S.S meetings and programmes has always demanded
some concrete work from the organization to protect
our environment and encourage plantation. Brigadier
R.K. Singh (Retd), a well known environmentalist
of northern India, through his informative lectures/talks
and "nature Club" magazine has been discouraging
the use of Polythene and encouraging plantation for
several years.
As per reports (2001-2002) received from the colleges
so far the N.S.S units have planted more than 15000
plants during this year.
