About NSS
With the dawning of independence on 15th August 1947, the Government of India intended to integrate the student community in the service to the nation. The first knowledge commission in 1950 considered the philanthropic service of the students to be of significant importance. This resulted in the establishment of the ‘National Service Scheme’ (NSS) at the University level in April 1957. The colleges under these Universities also set up their own NSS units.

As a unit of the National Service Scheme of the University of Calcutta, the students of Dr. Kanailal Bhattacharyya college have dedicated themselves towards the glorious aim of serving the nation. The motto of NSS — “Not Me But You” — has constantly driven them to carry out their duties to the nation, throughout the year. Some of their key activities, like keeping the college campus clean and disciplined, tree plantation, celebrating the days of national and international importance [ Youth Day (12th Jan); Republic Day (26th Jan); Women’s Day (8th March)’ World Forest Day (21st March); Independence Day (15th August); NSS Day (24th Sept.) etc.], making the people of the locality aware of the importance of the pulse polio vaccination — have made the college NSS unit vibrant.

Recently the NSS has conducted a Health & Medical Check Up camp along with free medicine supply at Baramollakhali, 24 Pgs(s), in the Suridarban Coastal Area from 4th to 10th March.

To lead the personality of a volunteer to complete flourishing through group activities, is the aim of the NSS. NSS wishes to achive this goal through certain important steps,

working with the people and for the people.
indulging in creative and organized social activities.
expanding one’s knowledge into the community.
finding the practical implication of one’s theoretical knowledge.
achieving the potential of democratic leadership.

It has been a long cherished dream of the people of Santragachi and the surrounding areas to have a Degree College in this locality. The dream was gradually turning into a moment. At this juncture late Sudhir Kr. Ghosh, a benefactor and a Philantheopist agreed to donate his land and building situated at Santragachi, Dharmatala, for the establishment of an educational institution. After that into the initiation of the then local M.L.A. Sri Satyen Ghosh and some other important personalities of the area a board of Trustees was formed on 26.11.1984 and some allied organisational activities were undertaken on 10th March, 1985 in a public meeting presied over by Ex-chairman of Public Service Commission Raghu Das Baul and attended by donor Sudhir Kumar Ghosh a resolation was adopted that a degree College should be established after the name of Dr. Kanailal Bhattacharyya, an educationist, public leader and Ex-minister of Commerce and Industries, Govt. of West Bengal.

The College was granted affiliation by the Calcutta University & The State Govt. in September 1985. The then Higher Education Minister Late Prof. Sambhu Ghosh graced the inauguration ceremony as guest-in-cheif.

Before starting off fund raising programmes, a nine-member committee was set up with the then District Magistrate of Howrah Sri Sumantra Chowdhury as the President of the same. Some local bodies and many education lovers came in with monetary help. Under the leadership of noted engineer late Raghudas Baul, a group of dedicated engineers came forward to lay down the plan and supervise the reformation of the old building and estab-lishing new classroom. With their cumulative efforts the old building was renovated and extended as per the need. Two new class rooms were also set up.

In the month of September 1985, the college received permission to organize courses on five subjects – Bengali, English, History, Philosophy and Education from Calcutta Univer-sity. On 22nd September 1985, the college was officially inaugurated by late Prof. Sambhu Ghosh, the then Honourable Minister of Higher Education Govt. of West Bengal. With the setting up the institution, the coveted dream of the local people was realized.

From September 1985 to January 1988, as the Founder Secretary, the then local MLA Sri Satyen Ghosh led the development and the management of the college. In December 1985, Sri Keshab Chandra Khara joined the institution as the first permanent lecturer in the Bengali department. He temporarily shouldered the responsibility of the post of the Teacher-in- charge from 11th September 1986 to 19th January 1988.
