KINS & KIDS NSS Celebrate NSS Week-2021

NSS wings of Kalinga Institute of Nursing Sciences (KINS) and Kalinga Institute of Dental Sciences (KIDS), KIIT NSS Bureau organized an awareness program on COVID-19on the occasion of NSS Week 2021 on 18^th September 2021. The program was conducted by NSS volunteers of KIDS & KINS under the mentorship of NSS Programme Officers, Dr. Dhirendra Singh (KIDS) & Ms. Daini Sunita (KINS).

The National Service Scheme (NSS) was introduced in 1969 with the primary objective of developing the personality and character of the students’ youth through voluntary community service. ‘Education through Service’ is the purpose of the NSS. The ideological orientation of the NSS is inspired by the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi. Very appropriately, the motto of NSS is “Not Me, But You”.

COVID-19 is caused by a virus and is transmitted through direct contact with respiratory droplets of an infected person. While COVID-19 continues to spread, it is important that communities take action to prevent further transmission, reduce the impacts of the outbreak and support control measures. The program began with a rally from dental college to front of the KIMS followed by Nukkad Natak on “Awareness on COVID 19” by volunteers and ended with planting of saplings on the premises of KIDS.
