A large number of students of the college have not only achieved academic excellence but also have established themselves as good citizens of the society, making the college proud.

The establishment and present stature of the college in the comparatively backward and economically poor region has been possible due to the continuous goodwill and support of support of certain distinguished personalities and the general public of the area, to whom the college is always indebted. But the college has stood to the aspiration of these benefactors   and has amply returned the favors in term of its excellent and sincere service to the community.

The credit to this must be given to the administrative expertise of the college authority as well as the experience and diligence of the sensible teaching and non-teaching staff.
