The National Service Scheme, or NSS, is a public service initiative run by the Indian government's Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports. The national service program was introduced in 1969.

 It is a voluntary group of young people that seeks to shape the characters of college, university, and +2 level students through volunteerism. Everyone knows that students in national service programs labor willingly for various causes, but is that really the NSS's core principle?

The University Grants Commission suggested implementing the national service program voluntarily in educational institutions. S. Radhakrishnan served as its leader. The Central Advisory Board of Education gave this concept some thought in 1950. In the 1952 draught of the five-year plan, the Indian students' ideas about work and social services were emphasized. Jawaharlal Nehru later suggested that this be taken into consideration as a requirement for graduation in 1958.

The Ministry of Education and the University Grants Commission convened a conference meeting with university and higher education institution student representatives in May 1969. There, it was unanimously agreed to include a national service program as a tool for national integration. Finally, on September 24, 1969, the then-Union Education Minister V.K.R.V. Rao introduced the national service program at 37 universities throughout all 50 states.

Symbol of NSS

The massive Rath Wheel of the Black Pagoda/Konark Sun Temple in Odisha has been chosen as the national service program's emblem. The emblem stands for the ongoing efforts made by the National Service program to bring about changes in society. It also represents mobility in life over space and time and changes as well as continuity.

The NSS sign, which is based on the Rath wheel symbol, has eight bars to represent each of the 24 hours of the day. The red hue represents the young volunteers' youthful vitality and vigor, while the blue tint represents the cosmos.
