Our Strength
•More than physical work, we aim at the personality
development of the students.
•A good number of Ready to Work volunteers on call.
•We are able to create a group of young men socially active.
•We help the poor and needy especially in time of
blood requirements.
•Inter department friendship of students fostered.
•Volunteers get more exposure through Inter- Collegiate, State
level and National level camps.
45
However….
• We are not able to bring all the enrolled volunteers to all the
programmes and get Certificates to all.
• Normally students of economically and educationally weak
background become active in the programmes.
•The allotted fund for NSS activity is not sufficient.
• Not able to associate with agencies like CHASS.
• No tangible achievements like house, library etc.
• Only one Programme Officer could attend the Orientation
Course at TOC, RCSS.
• The Advisory meetings are not seriously conducted.
• Female volunteers are few in number, hence they could not be
accommodated in the special camping programmes.
46
Road Map
• Help maximum students achieve all
the objectives of NSS
• Make SB NSS the Best in the State
• Organize a National Integration Camp
in the Navathy Year
• Make tangible assets like house or library
• Form ‘life clubs’ along important roads to
help the victims of road accidents
