Situated at an ideal site in the lap of the surrounding hillocks, our College owes its inception to the magnanimous philanthropy of Late Rajendra Narayan Singh Deo, the then Ruler of the erstwhile Patna State and Later Chief Minister of Orissa. The College was founded by him on 3rd July, 1944 and was affiliated to Utkal University with intermediate Arts and Commerce. It was upgraded to a Degree College in July, 1946 with the instruction of the B.A. (pass) class. The institution attained the status of a full-fledged Degree College after the affiliation of the B.Com. Class in 1964-65 and B.Sc. class in 1965-66. P.G. teaching started from the session 1978-79. Since 1st January, 1967 the College has been under Sambalpur University.
