Special camps have been organized by the NSS unit of Vidyasagar Evening College at 19/1 Bechu Chatterjee St. slum. The NSS unit with the help of the local people selected the portico of a local temple, Shyamsundartala, as the venue for the seven day extensive programme. The nature of the activities to be held at the camp was decided by the survey reports of the adopted slum by NSS volunteers. Doctors, teachers, and researchers addressed the slum dwellers on various issues from population control, aids awareness, infectious diseases, health and hygiene. Competitions were held for the children and women. Free medical check ups were organized where physiotherapists, pediatricians, gynecologists, general physicians attended to the slum dwellers. Free medicines were distributed by an NGO ‘Banchbo’ at the health camp. 

Film shows were organized for children. All participants from the slum were given prizes and goodies to enhance their interest and encourage their support. 

The College Unit was appreciated for its programmes in the feild of Social welfare. In 2010, the Unit which was working for only three years was given the recognition of the BEST NSS UNIT amongst all the Units of the CU affiliated Colleges. III rd year Bengali Honours student, Chiranjit Samanta won the Best Volunteer Award, thus proving that we had realized the principal ideal of the organization inherent in Swamiji's philosophy of "Not me but You" in substantial measure. 

Thus the students of the College have made the NSS programmes a success through their selfless service and dedicated involvement. We hope to see our NSS Unit flourish and attain new heights of excellence in the sphere of community service in the future.
