KHEL: Set to foster Fraternity and Sportsmanship

St. Xavier's College NCC is going to organise the fifth version of "Khel", an inter battalion annual sports meet on 28th March, 2020 in the college campus. 
SXCNCC will host teams from 17 colleges and battalions of Kolkata and nearby districts with a footfall on the D-Day expected to be around 800. The events that will be held include: Football (unisex), Kho-Kho, Basketball, Throwball, Shot Put, Long Jump, Volleyball, Track events, Badminton, Tug-of-war, Relay race and the brand new "Ragda Race" which is a series of front rolls, push ups, frog jumps, cow walk and sprint.

It shows that NCC is not limited to rigourous drill and endless "ragdas" only. Alongwith "Unity and Discipline", it also believes in "All work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy."

বরানগর এর মধ্যবিত্ত ঘরের চা বিক্রেতার ছেলে সুমন কর, ছোট থেকে কষ্ট করে মানুষ. কষ্টটা বুঝেছে ছোট থেকে আজ সে ইঞ্জিনিয়ার তাই সে তার রোজগারের পুরো টাকাটাই গরিব দুঃখীদের মাঝে ভাগ করে দেয়. কখনো অসহায় বাচ্চাদের ছাতা, বই খাতা ব্যাগ প্রদান করে, কখনো অসহায় মানুষদের মুখে অন্ন তুলে দেয় আবার কখনো রাস্তার অবলা পশুদের নিজে হাতে খাওয়ায়. শীতের হাত থেকে কষ্ট পেতে দেখলে কাউকে কম্বল প্রদান করা কাউকে আবার বৃষ্টি থেকে বাঁচাতে ছাতা প্রদান করা 
    এইভাবে সুমন কর তার কর্মকান্ড চালিয়ে যাচ্ছে দীর্ঘ ৬ বছর ধরে. সে নিজে এই সামাজিক কাজের জন্য সব বন্ধুরা মিলে তৈরী করেছে "হাসিখুশি ক্লাব" তার নিজের কলেজের ভাই বোন ও তার বিভাগের দুজন শিক্ষিকাকে নিয়ে "প্রগতি" তারা সবাই এই সামাজিক মূলক কাজে সবসময় এগিয়ে আসে !!
