Bidhannagar College

IDHANNAGAR COLLEGE, GOVERNMENT OF WEST BENGAL, WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1984 IN SALT LAKE (BF-142), WITH THE AIM OF PROVIDING QUALITY EDUCATION TO STUDENTS OF SALT LAKE AND ADJOINING AREAS. Bidhannagar College began its glorious journey on June 25, 1984. It is a government college directly under the aegis of the Department of Higher Education, Government of West Bengal. It was originally housed in a small building at premises no. BF-142, Salt Lake City. Since its inception the College has been oriented towards being a model of academic excellence. Though Bidhannagar College was initially affiliated to the University of Calcutta, since 2008, it has been affiliated to the newly established West Bengal State University (Barasat, North 24 Parganas). To make good the space crunch of the first location and to ensure unhindered growth and development of the College, a new building was built for the college on 7.5 acres of prime land at EB-2, Sector I, Salt Lake. The three-storeyed structure stands amidst a wide expanse of greenery. A Spacious playground is there in the college premises too. Bidhannagar College was accredited B++ by the NAAC in 2006.
