|
| Historical Background of NSS, its philosophy, aims & Objectives: |
|
| The National Service Scheme (NSS) programme was started on 24th September 1969, during the Mahatma Gandhiji Centenary years. Since Gandhiji had inspired the youth to participate in the national movement such as non cooperation, civil disobedience and quit India movements for the independence of India and for the social upliftment of the downtrodden masses. |
|
| The NSS was started to establish a meaning full linkage between the campus and the community. For Gandhiji the villages, where majority of the population lived, represent the country, i.e. India. Therefore, for the national reconstruction and national resurgence it was deemed fit that the student youth, teachers and intellectuals should be properly sensitized and utilized for strengthening the Indian society, as a hole with particular emphasis on rural community, who are living in poverty, illiteracy, with social backwardness. Therefore, student youth, teachers and intellectuals are considered the three basic components of the NSS. |
|
| The Motto of NSS " Not Me but You" is a sense of expression of face it appears to be very simple and short, but behind it lies a lot of meaning. It is very deep and suggestive and is quite in keeping with the spirit of NSS service for others. |
|
 |
|
- Forgetting and surrounding the self
- Rendering selfless service for others
|
|
| The word "Not" before "me is to reduce the self to enhance the importance of others. The abridged expression "Not Me but You" can be simply expanded as follows: |
I do not live for me but for you.
The world is not only for me but for you also. |
|
| The overall concept of NSS as envisaged earlier, is to given an extension dimension to the higher education system and orient the student youth to community service while they are studying in educational institution. The educated youth who are expected to take the reins of an administration in future are found to be unaware of the problems of the village/slum community and in certain cases are indifferent towards their needs and problems. Therefore, it is necessary to arouse the social conscience of the students and to provide them an opportunity to work with the people in the villages and slums. It is felt that their interaction with the common villagers and slum dwellers will expose them to the realities of life and bring about change in their social perception. The main aim of this scheme is service through education and personality development through education and personality development through service. The overall objective of the NSS, as envisaged originally was service to the community, offered while undergoing instruction in educational institutions. |
