Annual Day
NSS, IIT Kharagpur Annual Day was held on April 12, 2014 at V2 Auditorium of Vikramshila Complex. This is the time when we bid adieu to our 2nd year student volunteers who complete their 4-semester long service in this program. Emotions run high but that is how it is! Senior batch leaves, new batch joins. We continue to enrich ourselves by our association and humble offerings through this program; that helps us to exercise and assimilate certain important character qualities in us which often go unnoticed in a competitive world and that is for our own good and also for the good of our family, society, nation, humanity as a whole. People from villages / slums for whom we work, participate in this annual day function like every other NSS functions. In this, some of the volunteers are felicitated for their exemplary service and leadership role in the team.
The annual day function was graced by Director, IIT Kharagpur. In his short speech he remembered his own NSS Days as student of this institute, how he worked in Balarampur village and shared his vision for NSS, IIT Kharagpur and how we can contribute more for the welfare of the underprivileged in our neighbourhood. Dean, UGS too encouraged the student team in his speech. This was followed by a brief presentation of NSS volunteers where work done across 15 units of NSS in last one year was explained. Six new scholarships were announced and recipients from neighbouring village high schools were called on stage. These scholarships are instituted in memory of a postgraduate student by faculty and students of one research lab. of IIT Kharagpur. A cultural program followed. Village kids outdid each other to put up an excellent performance that had song, dance, recitation, speech.
We are happy to share with our readers the following videos that capture different segments of this evening function.
