The National Service Scheme (NSS) was evolved and introduced by the Government of India in the year 1969. NSS was started because of the desirability of involving students in national service. It aims at developing among students a sense of participation in nation-building through social work. It also inculcates the sense of doing social services voluntarily. NSS plays a crucial role in the development of the latent aspects of the student’s personality.

NSS BIT Mesra is a team of over 600 student volunteers, working under the guidance of the Program Coordinator and Program Officers, undertaking various activities to promote the idea of collective responsibility among fellow students.
