March 29, 2010: Vikrama Simhapuri University (VSU) Vice-Chancellor C.R. Visweswara Rao exhorted the students to strive for reconstruction of the nation and enrich their knowledge by organising camps in rural areas.
Addressing the students and villagers at a camp being organised by the NSS unit of the University at Pothireddypalem village in the district on Friday, Mr. Rao said the theme of the programme is to create awareness among the villagers on health, sanitation, education and other social issues.
The service camps of this nature were a manifestation of the university's contribution in bringing social awareness and develop villages, he said and asked the students to collect date from each house on school dropouts, maintaining health and other issues and counsel the women folk. VSU Registrar and programme president V. Narayana Reddy praised the efforts of Pothireddypalem gram panchayat members in developing the hamlet.
The aim of setting up universities at district-level is to take education at grass root level in all villages and the goal would be achieved only when students participate in such camps actively.
Mr. Reddy said the response from the villagers for the NSS camp was good .
