The National Service Scheme (NSS) Unit of HNN College of Engineering (HNNCE) celebrated NSS Day on 24th September 2026 with enthusiasm and a strong spirit of service, unity and social responsibility. The programme was organised to commemorate the significance of NSS and to encourage students to uphold the motto “Not Me, But You” through active participation in social and community-oriented activities.
The programme was attended by Dr. Chinni Krishna R, NSS Programme Officer, HNNCE, Dr. Bhargavi K S, Professor, Department of Physics, and Ms. Radhika, Chemistry Lab Instructor, along with NSS volunteers and other students of the college.
The celebration commenced with an introduction to NSS Day and its significance. The programme highlighted the role of youth in contributing towards the development of society and the nation. The various themes associated with NSS Day 2026, including youth leadership and Viksit Bharat, environmental sustainability, health and wellness, digital and financial literacy, social inclusion and community service, were highlighted. The students were encouraged to understand that social responsibility begins with small and meaningful actions and that young people can play an important role in bringing positive change to society.
The programme also served as an opportunity to reflect upon the various dimensions of community service. The importance of cleanliness, environmental protection, health awareness, responsible digital practices, financial awareness, gender equality, women empowerment and social inclusion were emphasised as areas in which students can actively contribute. The celebration reinforced the idea that NSS is not limited to organised activities but is a platform through which students can develop a sense of responsibility, empathy, discipline and leadership.
Following the introductory session, the NSS Seva Song was presented by Jeevitha, Ashwitha and Lisha. The song set the tone for the celebration and reflected the spirit of service and dedication associated with NSS.The programme continued with a series of cultural performances by NSS volunteers and students. Sagar and his team presented a dance performance that added energy and enthusiasm to the celebration. The performance was well received by the gathering and added a vibrant element to the programme.
This was followed by a vocal song presented by Ashwitha. Her performance added a musical dimension to the celebration and was appreciated by the audience. A vocal folk song was subsequently presented by Sinchana, NSS volunteer. The performance brought a traditional and cultural element to the celebration and added further variety to the programme.An NSS-themed skit was then presented by Adithya and his team. Through the performance, the students combined entertainment with a message connected to the spirit and values of NSS. The skit provided an engaging way of communicating the importance of social responsibility and service.
The cultural activities provided a platform for students to express their talents and participate actively in the NSS Day celebration. The performances also contributed to creating a sense of togetherness among the NSS volunteers and students.
As an important part of the celebration, the NSS Oath was taken by the participants. Through the oath, the students reaffirmed their commitment to the values of service, social responsibility, equality, cleanliness, environmental protection and helping those in need. The oath served as a reminder of the responsibility carried by every NSS volunteer and the importance of putting the spirit of “Not Me, But You” into practice.
The programme also included the distribution of prizes to the winners of the quiz competition. The prizes were distributed in recognition of the students' participation and performance in the competition. The occasion provided an opportunity to appreciate the efforts of the participants and encourage students to actively take part in such activities.
Another significant initiative associated with the NSS Day celebration was the Book Donation Driveorganised to support the education of students in government schools. The initiative encouraged students to contribute notebooks that could be useful to schoolchildren and support their educational needs.
Many students came forward and donated books and notebooks as part of the drive. The enthusiastic response from the students reflected the spirit of sharing and community service promoted by NSS. The initiative conveyed a simple but meaningful message — a notebook that may be unused by one student can become a valuable resource for another student. Through such small contributions, students can collectively support education and create a positive impact in the community.
The Book Donation Drive also highlighted the importance of extending NSS activities beyond the college campus. By contributing educational materials, the students were able to participate in an activity aimed at supporting schoolchildren and encouraging the continuation of their education.
