The founding history is embarked upon by the efforts of Late Shri Krishna Singh the first Chief Minister of Bihar. The college was very fortunate to be embraced and enlightened by the wisdom of Sri Mahesh Prasad Singh. It was his inspiration to have a plot of two acres to establish an educational institution which would impart quality education, promote capacity building, aiming towards holistic development of the future generation. The land on which the very foundation has been carved was donated on 6th September 1963 by the legendary educationists Shri Ratneshwar Prasad Singh and Smt. Tejwanti Kuwar, wife of Shri.
