Chakdaha College

The November of 2021 marked the Golden Jubilee of Chakdaha College. With fifty years trailing behind it, the college today stands resolute and sturdy. Bearing the torch of education, it continues to work for the social and moral upliftment of its students. In its moment of inception in 1972, the college was born humbly and out of meagre means, conducting classes in a borrowed space and with a strength of only 76 students enrolled in merely 2 courses. The college has come a long way since then. Today it offers two sections via morning and day and a total of 17 courses which include 14 Honours and 3 General subjects. It is home to an overwhelming strength of nearly students. With 51% of the total strength being female, the college bears the marker of social progress in suburban Bengal. Further, the collection of nearly books that the college library retains adds to its progressive spirit and motif. Founded by the then-deputy speaker of West Bengal, Sri Haridas Mitra, the college is today governed by abled hands. At present under the able leadership of Dr. Swagata DasMohanta, Hon’ble Principal, the College is trying to reach the peak of development in every aspect. The two pivotal bodies, the teaching staff with 104 members and the non-teaching staff with 32 members, contribute their own share relentlessly to the smooth functioning of the college.
