HISTORY OF NSS

Ever since Independence there has been growing awareness of desirability of

involving students in national service. The First Education Commission (1950)

recommended the introduction of national service by students on a voluntary basis

.Subsequently on basis of suggestion made by the Prime Minister Nehru, a committee was

appointed under the chairmanship of Dr.C.D.Deshmukh to prepare a scheme for

compulsory national service by students prior to their admission for degree courses Prof.

K.G.Saiyidain who undertook a study of national service may be introduced on a voluntary

basis .A similar recommendation was made by Education Commission appointed under

the chairmanship of Dr. D.S.Kothari

The conference of Vice-chancellors in September 1967 welcomed this

recommendation and suggested that a special committee of Vice-chancellors should be set

up to examine this question in details .The details were soon worked out and the Planning

commission sanctioned the outlay for 5 Crores for developing the NSS during the 4th five

year plan as pilot project in selected institutions and universities .In pursuance of these

recommendations ,the Ministry of Education introduced the National Service Scheme

during 1969-70.The choice of the timing to its introduction was remarkably suspicious as

1969 was the birth centenary year of Mahatma Gandhi , the father of the nation to whom

social service almost a religion.

N.S.S SYMBOL

The symbol for the NSS has been based on the giant Rath Wheel of the world famous

Konark Sun Temple (The Black Pagoda) situated in Orissa, India. The wheel portrays the

cycle of creation, preservation and release and signifies the movement in life across time

and space, The symbol thus stands for continuity as well as change and implies the

continuous striving of NSS for social change.

N.S.S BADGE

The NSS Symbol is embossed on the badge. The eight bars in the wheel represent

the 24 hours of a day. The red colour indicates that the volunteer is full of young blood

that is lively, active, energetic and full of high spirit. The navy blue colour indicates

the cosmos of which the NSS is tiny part, ready to contribute its share for the welfare

of the mankind.
