NATIONAL SERVICE SCHEME [ NSS ]

NATIONAL SERVICE SCHEME The National Service Scheme (NSS) was launched in Indra Ganesan College of engineering in the year 2009. NSS is one of the most prominent central government schemes implemented under the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, Government of India. NSS provides opportunities for student youth in 11th and 12th grade at the school level and for technical education graduate and postgraduate students at colleges and universities in India to participate in various government-led community service activities and programs. To date, since its inception, more than 7.5 crore students have benefited under the Scheme. An NSS volunteer needs to devote a total of 240 hours social service in two years duration. Every year, a NSS volunteer has to devote 20 hrs. of orientation and 100 hrs. of community service. The NSS symbol is based on the "Rath" wheel of the Konark Sun Temple situated in Odisha.The navy blue colour indicates the cosmos of which the NSS is a tiny part, ready to contribute its share for the welfare of the mankind.The Red colour in the badge indicates that the NSS volunteers are full of blood i.e. lively, active, energetic and full of high spirit.

Adventure programs are activities undertaken under NSS. NSS activities are organized both on-campus and in nearby communities, encouraging students to understand and address societal issues. The NSS volunteers on successful completion of the required hours of service are issued a certificate. NSS volunteers can get weightage during admissions in higher studies and other benefits. Moreover the volunteers gain the exposure and experience to an accomplished social leader, an efficient administrator, a person who understands human nature. Overall the scheme has a positive impact on the lives of students, instilling in them a sense of duty towards society and the nation and upholding humanity and morality as the principles guiding their life.
