PROCEDURE
1. A group of students or even a single student could be assigned for a particular habitation or village
or municipal ward, as far as possible, in the near vicinity of their place of stay, so as to enable them
to commute from their residence and return back by evening or so.
2. The Community Service Project is a twofold one –
a) First, the student/s could conduct a survey of the habitation, if necessary, in terms of their own domain or
subject area. Or it can even be a general survey, incorporating all the different areas. A common survey
format could be designed. This should not be viewed as a duplication of work by the Village or Ward
volunteers, rather, it could be another primary source of data.
b) Secondly, the student/s could take up a social activity, concerning their domain or subject area. The
different areas, could be like –
▪ Agriculture
▪ Health
▪ Marketing and Cooperation
▪ Animal Husbandry
▪ Horticulture
▪ Fisheries
▪ Sericulture
▪ Revenue and Survey
▪ Natural Disaster Management
▪ Irrigation
▪ Law & Order
▪ Excise and Prohibition
▪ Mines and Geology
▪ Energy
▪ Internet
▪ Free Electricity
▪ Drinking Water.
