Burdwan Raj College, established in 1881,[1] is the oldest state-governed college in Purba Bardhaman district catering to the district and neighboring areas of Bankura district, Purulia district, Hooghly district and Birbhum district. It offers undergraduate courses in arts, commerce and sciences and a post-graduate course in Bengali. It is affiliated to University of Burdwan.[2]
History
In 1817, Maharaj Tej Chand established an Anglo-vernacular school in his palace at Burdwan.[3] In 1854, Maharaja Mahatab Chand extended and renamed the school "High English School". In 1881, when Aftab Chand became the Maharaja of Burdwan, he shifted the school to Natunganj and introduced Liberal Arts courses in accordance with the permission of the University of Calcutta. The school became named as "Raj Collegiate School" and the college "Burdwan Raj College". This chief educational institution of Burdwan is entirely supported out of the maharaja's estate.
The royal patronage of Burdwan Raj College was taken over by the government of West Bengal in 1956 under the sponsoring scheme, and its necessary parting from the University of Calcutta became effective. Burdwan Raj College was affiliated to the University of Burdwan in 1960.[4]
Mrityunjay Sil was the officer-in-charge. He served from 1991 to 1993 and made Burdwan Raj College rise to new heights — it was the number 1 college of West Bengal at that time and 21st at the All-India Level.[5]
