Brief History of NSS
NSS was started in the year 1969 to establish a meaningful linkage between the campus and community. With the aim of developing the personality of the younger generation through selfless community service, it was recognized that the country could not progress in a desired direction until the student youth are motivated to work for the upliftment of the villages/community. Therefore for the national reconstruction and national resurgence it was deemed to appropriate that the students and teachers should be properly sensitized and utilized for strengthening the Indian society as a whole with a particular emphasis on rural community. As a result, student youth, teachers and the community are considered as the three basic components of the National Service Scheme. And, the teachers and students contribute in the nation-building activity through community service.
Vision
The vision of the National Services Scheme is to build the youth with the mind and spirit to serve the society and work for the social uplift of the down-trodden masses of our nation as a movement.
Mission
The National Service Scheme has been functioning with the motto “NOT ME BUT YOU” in the view of making the youth inspired in service of the people and aims of the NSS is to impart Education through Community Service and Community Service through Education.
Objectives
The main objectives of National Service Scheme (NSS) are:

-

Motto – “NOT ME BUT YOU”
The motto "Not Me but You" reflects selfless service with emphasis on "You viewpoint". It is a win-win situation that provides for the welfare of the society and there by welfare of the individual. This character-building exercise puts the concept of "Sarvejanaha Sukhino Bhavantu" into practice.

Student-volunteers have been working compassionately, constructively and creatively to mitigate the problems of society. Organization of Blood Donation Camps and literacy campaigns are the annual features of the college NSS Unit. Our socially sensitive volunteers with deep sense of selfless service participate with verve in Police-Mitra Programme organized by the Police Commissioner of Pune and assist the policemen in patrolling the surging crowd during ten days’ Ganesh festival of Pune and Alandi Dnyaneshwar Palkhi (procession). Our Unit further enhances the social spirit through Seven-Day Camps and various One-Day Camps that are organized in the nearby villages during autumn break. Our Volunteers pay One-Day Visit and render their services to Old Age Home and Physically Handicap Rehabilitation Centre located at Kahne Phata, in Maval taluka and Pune district.
