During my first year as an NSS volunteer,
I was in the literacy group of Prof.P.Guha. I taught students of
Kendriya Vidyalaya of IIT campus for few days. Then I started a new
study center at Congress Office outside IIT campus. I and Ishan also
taught children of cleaning staffs of MMM Hall in my room.
In my second year, my friend Ishan and I took an initiative of teaching
students of class 11 of local schools with the co-ordination
Prof.G.Saha. For the purpose we conducted a test and also selected 20
students. But unfortunately we could not take more than 4 classes
because of unavailability of proper venue. Currently I am a member of
NSS Central Team and my job is to write articles for the NSS Newsletter
and also conduct interviews of some of the featured groups. Being
inspired by the work of NSS, I have been conducting educational
workshops for school students in different cities of the country for the
last 1 year with Saif and Gyan. This summer I am organizing an
awareness drive in rural areas of Bihar and Jharkhand with the
co-ordination of respective governments and my team mate Saif and Ishan.
I have also designed various workshops on different needs and prospects
for creating awareness among students in about 10 cities of India. I
thank NSS to give me a platform to share my knowledge with others and I
hope to continue it.
