FROM THE PROGRAM OFFICERʼS DESK I believe that education is not worthy enough if it is not able to bring an emotion for social welfare. In today’s era of competitiveness and professionalism, the purpose of education is now more focused on individual success rather than social welfare. NSS is a platform where we try to develop a sense of welfare among young minds through engagement in social welfare activities. These community engagement programs help the youth to understand the various problems in the society and eventually their solutions turn into welfare policies as many of these young people take on the baton of responsibility as key decision-makers in policy formulation. It is my privilege to be associated with the NSS unit of SRCC. Teaching and guiding the best minds of a country is certainly a great feeling. I am proud enough to say that our volunteers are admirably adhering to the NSS Motto of “NOT ME BUT YOU” and trying their best to bring positive changes around the society through different activities. The NSS unit of the college is the most active student unit in and outside the campus; which starts from the first day of admissions and goes on till the last working day of the session; and their zeal to continue working, despite the limitations that come with the shift to digital platforms, is admirable. Today I can confidently say that the contribution of our NSS volunteers is limited to some specific celebrations; rather it has now become a daily affair. The office-bearers and volunteers have played a very crucial role in ensuring the elevation of social contributions of NSS SRCC and I express my sincere gratitude to them for enabling the objectives of NSS to become ground realities. I would also like to congratulate the editorial team for bringing this new issue of PRERNA to the readers. I wish the volunteers the very best for their future!
