Anandapur College

The Anandapur College is situated on the bank -of the sacred river Baitarani. The College completes its fourty-five years of existence, fulfilling the long cherished desire of the people of this sub-division for higher education. The pioneering efforts of Sri A.C. Dehury, then the S.D.O. Anandapur, benevolent efforts of some young gentleman of the locality, generous contributions of the people of Anandapur and financial help received from all the Panchayats under the sub-division brought the long cherished dream of the public of the locality into a reality. The College originally started functioning in Ananda Bhawan, the Town Hall of Anandapur, in the month of July, 1964 with a strength of only 90 students and 6 lecturers. After about 3 years the College was finally shifted to the present site where a number of buildings have now come up.
