WELCOME TO BIDHAN CHANDRA COLLEGE

 

Bidhan Chandra College, Rishra, affiliated to the University of Calcatta, is situated in the heart of the industrial belt in the Serampore Sub-Division of Hooghly District in W.B. It was established in 1957 after the name of illustrious Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, the then Chief Minister and architect of modern West Bengal. The college owes its existence to the munificient charity of Birkmyre Education Trust as also to the well wishers of the college like Late Shribhusan Bose, Late Pannalal Mukherjee, Late Principal Kanai Lal Ganguly and others who made laudable efforts in its making.
