NSS
National service scheme
National service scheme was started in our polytechnic in 1986. Initially it was started with one unit comprising 100 volunteers. The two aspects of NSS are regular activities and special camping programme. Activities like career guidance, soft skill, entrepreneur ship, clean environment, free eye camps and medical camps are conducted in regular activities. A village is adopted by our NSS unit and the special camp is conducted in the village every year.
