About Lalgola College, Lalgola

Established in 2005, Lalgola College started its academic session in 2006-07 with a mere 65 students. Presently the number of students is almost 3200.

Lalgola College has been permanently affiliated to the University of Kalyani and has got recognition from the University Grants Commission (UGC).

The need of education in human life can never be exaggerated. It is education that helps us move from ignorance to knowledge, from knowledge to wisdom.

The establishment of Lalgola College may be the cause of an educational upheaval owing to the fact that it is established in one of the remotest corners of West Bengal. The students are mostly from backward classes and minorities, many of them are first generation learners. Had the College not been established, thousands of students would completely have been deprived of the light of higher education.

Our motto, therefore is to educate these students sufficiently so that may pursue further education or service thereby establishing themselves as Lalgola is a Block under Lalbagh Sub Division of Murshidabad District, West Bengal. Considering the urge of Higher Education for all-round development of the society, some eminent educationists of the locality took initiative towards establishment of a degree college at Lalgola. Education-loving people from all spheres of the society supported wholeheartedly towards foundation of the College. As such, 'Lalgola College' was established on 26th August, 2005.

The College initially started functioning at the premises of M.N. Academy, Lalgola in the morning shift . From June 2008 , the College was shifted to its own building erected inside a campus of 3.12 acres near Krishnapur Railway Station. The entire cost of land was donated by Md. Mustaque Hossain, Managing Director of G.D. Charitable Society, Aurangabad. The surroundings of the College is calm and quiet, pollution free, enriched with natural beauty. Lalgola College, though established very recently, is emerging fast as a notable centre of Higher Education in the district .
