| Institutional Distinctiveness
|
(I)
Though NSS plays an important role in every sphere of life. Every college and institution established the NSS unit. It is a National Service Scheme. We see in many institutions, the Authority has made it compulsory for the students to join the organization to serve the nation. The main motto of establishment of this organization is to train the youngsters to serve the nation with enthusiasm and dedication. The volunteers perform various activities and provides service at various level from institution to society. They always come forward to help the needy in situation like earthquake, flood, traffic accident, emergency in hospital etc. They are always ready to donate blood when such situation arises. Sometimes, they help the traffic police to control the traffic to make the flow of traffic easy. Besides this, our college has a unique feature/Distinctiveness regarding the community service to visit the area where old age people need their help most. The college administration mobilize the NSS Volunteers to reachout the old age people who are neglected by their wards, relatives and society as well. The NSS Volunteers camp the area and try their level best to provide the help to needy.Our NSS volunteers also aware the people organizing the awareness camp regarding the duties and responsibilities of the individual, individuals and society towards the old age people.
(II)
The another distinctiveness of NSS Wing is to organize the seminar, symposium, debates etc in collaboration of other departments. NSS Unit also organized various literacy programs with the collaboration of Urdu department, GDC Mendhar as under:
1. “One Day National Urdu seminar” on 31st of Oct, 2018.
(III)
One of the distinctive features of NSS Unit is organize programmes particularly on “morality” “ethics” ‘’and national integration’’ and this has become a common practice of this institution. As the matter of fact, the educationist and policy makers are of the opinion that subject on moral values must be introduced at various level of learning. It is only the education institution which can impart the true value of education and thus organization like NSS can play a remarkable and path breaking role in the society we are living is and the system we are dealing with. It is up to college administration how they utilize the services of this organization to gain the maximum gain and result. But as the matter of fact, our NSS organization has been playing an important role since its inception to the areas which are generally untouchable. This institution encourages the NSS Volunteers and provide coaching and training to them for further achievements. The students who join the organization with great dedication, by sheer dint of hard work and passion become a good human being as well as good citizen.
