At present we have adopted Asurde village. In this village we undertook activities of interroad development, tree plantation, organized various lectures for the students and village peoples. We further took a primary survey and created a data base for the Grampanchayat. Various cultural activities, group discussions, rallies, street shows were also arranged during the camp.

We are trying to develop a Technocratic Environment and help the underprivileged people to develop themselves. The Motto of NSS “Not Me but You”, reflects the essence of democratic living and upholds the need for self-less service.  The logo for the NSS has been based on the giant Rath Wheel of the world famous Konark Sun Temple (The Black Pagoda) situated in Orissa, India. The Red & Blue colors contained in the logo motivate the NSS Volunteers to be active & energetic for the nation-building social activities. The wheel portrays the cycle of creation, preservation and release and signifies the movement in life across time and space, the wheel thus stands for continuity as well as change and implies the continuous striving of NSS for social change.
