Welcome to
Barasat Government College

BarasatGovernment College was set up in 1950 and has since then catered to a wide cross-section of urban, sub-urban and rural students. Good connectivity by both rail and road makes it the foremost choice among the students of the district of North 24 Parganas. As a government college it enjoys direct government supervision, supportand grants.

However, the College owes its commencement to the post-partition need to rehabilitate the displaced immigrant population settled there through formal educationand subsequent employment. In 1950 the State Government selected the town of Barasat as the location for a new college for this purpose.The College has developed significantly ever since.

Message from
Principal's Desk

It is prestigious to head a premier institute like Barasat Government College with its history of high academic standards and its leading role in the advancement of education in the post-Independence period. Situated in an advantageous location in the district headquarter of North 24 Parganas, at the core of the communication network of the region, the college attracts students from a wide area and from varied socio-economic background – a good number of whom come from the rural or semi-urban areas. Its initial affiliation was to the University of Calcutta, but since 2008 it is functioning under the West Bengal State University and has effectively implemented the ‘choice-based credit system’ since 2018.
