But many a real hero of social reformation of and remain unsung. Quite appropriately goes the saying in the locality of Nabagram that Nabagram could not dream of a college without Hiralal Paul. Duda indefatigable agility, philanthropic and altruistic endeavours of late Hiralal Paul the college was established. Dr BC Roy the then chief Minister government of West Bengal laid the foundation stone. Hiralal Babu had a dream to realise," I have just been able to plant a little sapling for the dissemination of Higher Education and it is impregnated with the potentiality of growing into a big tree with full Blossom if nourished with care in the years to come."

The college strikes in healthy balance of formal and informal interaction among the faculty, students and the members of the non teaching staff so as to create an ideal and latitudinarian and environment of learning.
