Today is a big day for the nation. NSS, IIT Kharagpur wishes all a very, very happy Independence Day. In unfurling the national flag, Prof. N. R. Mandal, Dean, Student Affairs and Acting Director made us aware of our inner core that always seeks freedom but out of ignorance takes different paths - one leads to deeper bondage and greater agony, the other leads to enlightenment and blissful experience. Full text of speech is given next. My colleagues, students of IIT Kharagpur, students of our neighbouring schools, ladies and gentlemen, a very good morning to you all.    It is indeed a great pleasure to see you all present here, celebrating the 68th Independence Day of our Motherland. On this auspicious occasion, we pay our respectful homage to our countrymen who sacrificed their lives and earned this freedom. The freedom thus earned, is the job completely done? Should we then sit complacent with this or look ahead?   I understand that what we have is...

National Service Scheme (NSS), IIT Kharagpur members actively take part in Independence Day function of the institute. In the build-up of this, we extend our service in the rehearsals conducted by local school children in the function venue. On function day, we arrive little early and in formal white shirt and black trouser. Every unit carries few posters on patriotic theme. We arrange chairs after cleaning and see that all the guests feel comfortable. A newsletter with an editorial on significance of the occasion is distributed to all. We serve snacks to school children who participate in the function. Independence Day function has always been special to imbibe in us the spirit of sacrifice and service. Here are few pictures on our participation in the event.
