Letter from an NSS volunteer
I am Abh..... from 3rd Year. I was in NSS in my first two years. I was thinking of one thing. Almost all NSS activities are concentrated in the villages in Kharagpur. There are also many people working in the campus like rickshaw pullers, sweepers etc who are also very poor to send their children to school. Shouldn't some measures be also planned towards this ? This is just a suggestion and maybe something can be thought on this. I had written a poem about a very poor elderly rickshaw puller in the campus some time before. I am attaching it below. Maybe it can help to spread some awareness among students towards this cause. Lifting the pall of darkness - This poem is based on a true story. I was in MMM hall. In November 2010, I was going home one evening. I took a rickshaw from the rickshaw stand near MMM hall for the railway station. The man pulling the rickshaw was above 60 years
