NSS

National Service Scheme (NSS) is a Scheme of Government of India – Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports. NSS provides opportunity for students to serve the Nation through community service. NSS Scheme was launched on 24th September in 1969, by then Union Education Minister Dr. V.K.R.V. Rao, to commemorate the 100th birth anniversary year of the Father of Nation.

NSS Motto

The motto or watchword of the National Service Scheme is 'NOT ME BUT YOU'. This reflects the essence of democratic living and upholds the need for selfless service and appreciation of the other person's point of view and also to show consideration for fellow human beings. It underlines that the welfare of an individual is ultimately dependent on the welfare of society on the whole. Therefore, it should be the aim of the NSS to demonstrate this motto in its day-to-day program.
