Students and Social Services

Or, Service Rendered by the Students to Build up Our Nation

Students are the future leaders and makers of a nation, They are the devotees in the temple of learning. So, the most important duty of students is to study seriously with devotion. It does not mean that they are isolated from the society. They are also social beings like other classes of people. They enjoy the same social benefits, rights and privileges. So, as members of society, they have certain duties to the society in which they live in. There are many kinds of social services and students have a lot to do in these sectors.

Living in a developing country like ours, students must render some social services for the development and welfare of the nation. So during the long vacation and leisure time, students can open night schools and teach the illiterate working children and adult people. They can also teach the farmers about the modern methods of cultivation, the use of fertilizers and proper caring of crops. They can also suggest them to dig a pond for fish cultivation or to make a farm.

Students can render immense service in the field of health. The village people and the people living in the slums have no knowledge about health, nutrition and sanitation. The students can teach them about the basic rules of health, nutrition and sanitation. Female students, can also teach the uneducated women how to keep their houses neat and clean, how to bring up children and look after their health. Students can prove themselves to be worthy citizens during natural disasters. In times of flood, famine and cyclone, earthquake and epidemic, they can come forward to help the affected people.

They can collect money from the rich, rescue the affected, feed the hungry, nurse the sick and clothe the unclothed. During epidemics, medical students can serve the sick with food, clothes and medicine. Students are a great source of strength to the country. They have ideals, energy and power to work. If they are rightly guided, they can really render very valuable service to society. There must be selfless leaders to make right use of them. Under proper guidance and noble inspiration they can do wonders.
