objective of personality development of the students through community service.
Also youth can play catalytic role in accelerating the process of national
development. Keeping this objective in mind, Banasthali University is running
students centered programme i.e. NSS. Every year most of the under graduate
students enroll in NSS. Seven villages have been adopted by NSS wing In the
beginning of session, survey is done by NSS volunteers to identify the problems
prevalent in the village.
Programmes are then
planned and implemented in the villages through regular activities and special
one day and ten days camping programmes.
Over the years NSS has
made significant contribution in the field of literacy, health and family
welfare, water conservation, environment enrichment and various social
issues.
Awareness in villagers is
created through lectures, sheet play and with the help of audio visual aids like
films, documentary, charts and posters. Help of experts in various fields is
