National Service Scheme

About National Service Scheme

As an institution that stands on the pillars of holistic education and spiritual development, Yogoda Satsanga Mahavidyalaya places significant emphasis on community service. Recognizing the importance of nurturing socially responsible citizens, the college actively participates in the National Service Scheme (N.S.S.), aligning with the efforts of numerous government and government-aided institutions. Through its N.S.S. units, the college endeavors to be a catalyst for positive change, organizing a plethora of initiatives that make a tangible impact on society.

Presently, YSM hosts two dedicated N.S.S. units. These units are spearheaded by passionate and committed programme officers with Dr. Mallika Kumari leading Unit I and Dr. Shweta Singh heading Unit II. Under their adept leadership, the N.S.S. volunteers engage in a variety of activities aimed at addressing pressing social and environmental issues in the suburban and rural areas surrounding the college.

Activities

The N.S.S. units at our institution organize a wide array of impactful events, each designed to foster awareness and bring about positive change.
