The idea of instituting a compulsory national service for youth as their before the country since independence.The Radha Krishna commission had originally nvisaged the idea of national service by youth but is favored a voluntary approach. In the first five year plan also a voluntary approach, on a pilot Project basis was recommended in the first instance. As a result of this, labor and social service camps were started. In 1953, the late Prime minister Pandit Nehru brought the idea of national service by students pointedly to the attention of the Chief ministers and suggested that all young men and women between the ages of 19 t0 20 should be enlisted for compulsory civil service for the nation. In the view of the first instance, the scheme should be confined to university students who should work for certain period in allotted spheres before graduation. A committee was appointed under the chairmanship Dr. C.D. Deshmukh to examine the proposal and make concrete suggestions. This committee recommended that national service for a period of 9 to 12 months may be required of all students completing the high school education and intending to enroll themselves in a college or a university.
