Principal's Desk

It is my proud privilege to have served this premier higher education institution as Principal for the last seven years. My aim is to make this college a centre of higher education that is dedicated to nation-building. The need of the hour is holistic education. I have made especial efforts to ensure the welfare of students and other stakeholders from the underprivileged classes and minorities, and that of our female students in particular.

I am delighted to announce that the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) has awarded Ramananda College a B++ grade with a CGPAof 2.83 in 2021. This is the result of the third cycle of assessment of the college—a stage to which very few higher education institutions in West Bengal have progressed so quickly. This excellent rating is an afrmation of our college's excellence, and I hope that it will inspire us to work harder and take the college to greater heights in future. I thank each and every one of the stakeholders of the college for the effort they put in to ensure the success of this assessment.

During this year, we continued to meet the challenges presented to the educational system caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have organized a vaccination programme for students who were unable to obtain it on their own. We have improved our online learning delivery methods and continued to encourage virtual studying. We have tried our best to ensure that students have not suffered in terms of their studies, and also tracked their progress effectively through timely evaluations and assessments. The college has further developed its online platform for teaching and learning activities. Our faculty members are utilising various platforms to communicate satisfactorily with students, and have already completed the syllabi of the even semester on time. The IQAC of this institution has created an easily accessible online library of e-content and model questions for students and faculty members. Many of our departments have organized national and international-level webinars and online lecture series.

We are now looking forward to fully implementing a blended system of education as recommended by the University Grants Commission. With the resumption of in-person classes in November 2021, we have been not only been teaching students in classrooms, but also helping them get re-accustomed to classroom-based learning—especially those who had not entered a school or college classroom in the past two years. At the same time, we are continuing to use electronic and online teaching learning methods more effectively so that students receive the best of both worlds.

The lifting of pandemic-related restrictions enabled to restart our annual cycle of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. We could hold our annual College Sports in 2022, after a gap of nearly two years. We also conducted an intra-college Drama Competition, as well as the Annual Exhibition. Many of our students have performed well in sports and other extra-curricular activities. I am very proud of the fact that our student Panchu Duley was selected for the national U-19 Football Team in 2021.

In the academic year 2021-22, 16 students of our college (a record-breaking number) have qualifed in the NET, SET and GATE examinations. I wish them all the best for their future.

Finally, in June 2022, we could organize the first-ever Legal Aid Camp in association with the college's Alumni Association, which saw the participation of district-level, sub-divisional, and local judges and law enforcement officials.

I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Arup Chakraborty, Member, West Bengal Legislative Assembly, who is the President of the Governing Body of this college, for always encouraging, advising, and helping me to lead the college properly. I also thank other members of the Governing Body for cooperating with me in the administrative work of the college. Finally, I would like to thank the teachers and the non-teaching staff for always helping me whenever their help has been needed.
