The Tanzania National Service was established on July 10, 1963 with the government aimed at bringing together the youth of this country and providing them with the formation of patriotism and unity in society after independence. 

Some of the reasons for the introduction of JKT were to convert the thinking of young people of this country from the colonial situation to depend on other countries to develop.
