NSS a good platform to serve needy: Dr PV Krishna Rao

Kakinada: NSS district programme officer Dr PV Krishna Rao has said that the organisation is a good platform to serve the needy and advised the students to join NSS, which is an opportunity to serve the people.

Participating in an awareness programme conducted on NSS at MS Naicker Degree College here on Thursday evening, he asked the students to inculcate the habit of serving society from student life.

Thousands of students were working in NSS across the country and participating in many social service programmes. In some areas, they adopted rural areas.
