It is a program that welcomes all college students and motivates them to participate in various social activities to enhance society’s well-being. NSS volunteers partake in activities such as awareness campaigns, health camps, cleanliness drives, blood donation camps, tree plantation drives, among others, with the intention of fostering a sense of responsibility and empathy in students towards the community, and promoting national integration. Participating in the NSS program offers benefits not only to the community but also to volunteers, as it develops their leadership, communication, and teamwork skills. It also presents an opportunity to interact with individuals from diverse backgrounds, and learn about their cultures and beliefs. In summary, the NSS program plays an integral role in developing students’ characters and enhancing society. It promotes social responsibility, civic consciousness, and encourages young people to become active citizens who contribute to the growth and development of the nation.
Message From Principal
I am delighted to share that our college is now part of the National Service Scheme (NSS), a community service initiative powered by young people and backed by the Indian government. As the principal of our esteemed institution, I am thrilled to see our students getting involved in activities that are socially relevant and promote community development, national integration, and overall personal growth. NSS provides our students with an opportunity to participate in a wide range of community service projects, such as blood donation camps, cleanliness drives, awareness campaigns, health camps, and other initiatives that contribute to the welfare of society as a whole. By participating in NSS, our students not only enhance their community but also cultivate leadership skills, a sense of responsibility, and an understanding of social issues. I encourage all our students to seize this wonderful opportunity and actively participate in NSS activities. I am confident that our college will make a significant contribution to the NSS movement and inspire others to follow our lead. Together, let us strive to create a better society and a brighter future for our nation.

Testimonials
NSS stands for National Service Scheme, which is a program aimed at developing students' personality through community service. As an NSS volunteer, I have found it to be a rewarding experience that has helped me develop my leadership skills, gain knowledge about social culture, and contribute to community development. Participating in NSS has encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone and explore new ideas, while also improving my communication and critical thinking skills. Overall, my involvement in NSS has expanded my ability to work hard and effectively, and I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of such a meaningful program.
Being part of NSS - National Service Scheme fills me with pride. NSS not only gave me the opportunity to help others but also helped me believe in and work towards that goal. As an Indian Government approved non-profit organization, NSS serves underdeveloped areas to contribute to the country's social growth. Through NSS, I participated in various social awareness campaigns, taught children in rural areas, and cleaned surroundings, which increased my sensitivity towards issues and empathy. Working with a large group of people helped me enhance my interpersonal skills and team spirit. I learned how to be selfless and help others, while also making great connections with NSS members, who I consider family. I am eternally grateful and happy to be a part of the NSS family and the programme.
The NSS group is wholly committed to serving the community through social work, and many students from our college have dedicated their time and effort to this cause with the support of the NSS community. Personally, working with this community has exposed me to a new and fulfilling environment outside of my daily routine. Through this experience, I have gained knowledge and skills, which have enabled me to help many people.
The primary objective of joining NSS is to develop one's personality through community service. Joining NSS has been a transformative experience that has helped me to discover my true self. Through my involvement, I have gained invaluable skills in leadership, teamwork, and social responsibility. These skills have helped me to become a socially active and responsible person who can stand out from the crowd. Overall, joining NSS has been an enriching experience that has facilitated my personal growth and development.
When I first joined NSS Inspiria, I viewed it as a basic social service club. However, as I participated in various activities and initiatives organized by NSS Inspiria, my interest in the organization grew. I recall my first involvement in which we cleaned the premises of a nearby school and taught children thumb painting. Through my experiences with NSS Inspiria, I have come to realize the significance of my contribution towards building a better society. I am deeply grateful to NSS Inspiria for providing me with this opportunity to make a positive impact on the community.
Being an NSS volunteer has been an incredible experience for me. Initially, I had certain expectations about the kind of social service activities we would be doing. However, through various drives and initiatives, we were exposed to a whole new world of serving rural communities and developing our event planning skills. Moreover, NSS has taught us the principles of Gandhian philosophy, which has helped us grow as individuals. Overall, my journey with NSS so far has been truly enriching.
I consider myself lucky to have had the opportunity to work as a volunteer with NSS Inspiria. Being a part of this organization has been an enriching experience that has allowed me to give back to society while simultaneously improving as an individual. During my time with NSS Inspiria, we have organized several successful social campaigns, including a plantation drive, hand painting workshop for primary school students, food and cloth distribution drive, and a blood donation camp within our campus. These experiences have enabled me to gain a deeper understanding of the social issues that plague our locality and motivated me to work even harder towards making a positive impact.
It's difficult to put into words the immense value that I have gained from being a part of NSS. Initially, I joined NSS without giving it much thought, partly for the benefits it could add to my resume and also out of curiosity. However, after actively participating in various drives, I realized how fulfilling it was to give my time and energy towards serving society and the environment. The experience has not only kept my mind at peace but has also been instrumental in developing my personality, enhancing my organizational, leadership, communication, and creative skills, and boosting my confidence. Through my involvement, I have also gained a deeper understanding of the diverse experiences of people and the disparities in access to basic necessities like food and water. It's been an absolute pleasure for me to work with NSS, and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to contribute to society in a meaningful way.
I am immensely thankful to Inspiria Knowledge Campus for giving me the opportunity to join the NSS team. Being a part of NSS as a student has allowed me to give back to society and has greatly enhanced my leadership skills. The various activities organized by NSS, including blood donation, plantation drives, food and clothes distribution, and teaching children from rural schools, have given me a new perspective on the world and instilled a sense of compassion within me. Being a part of NSS has allowed me to make a positive change in society while also developing my sense of social responsibility, making me a better person.
In my second year of BCA, I joined NSS to pursue my passion for social work. I had the opportunity to meet new people and together we organized various activities such as tree plantation at Nischintapur T.E. Primary School, celebrating NSS Day with thumb painting and various festivals. Additionally, we organized a Blood Donation Camp, Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, and distributed clothes and food to those in need. Being a part of NSS has brought me immense joy and satisfaction, and I look forward to continuing to make a positive impact on society through this organization.
Since last year, I have been an active volunteer with NSS Inspiria. Looking back on my journey, it has been an enriching and fulfilling experience. The amazing people I have met along the way have inspired me to step out of my comfort zone and prioritize the needs of society over my own. Volunteering has given me a deep understanding of the challenges that exist in our society while helping me develop as an individual. The happiness I feel while serving the community, be it with young children or the elderly in orphanages or nursing homes, is truly priceless. It has taught me that relationships can be built on empathy and kindness, not just blood ties.
