With the mission of spreading education among the poor and underprivileged
sections of society, Mahadevananda Mahavidyalaya was established by Swami
Jyotirmayananda Giri Maharaj in 1968. The demographic characteristics of the
backward regions of North 24 Parganas were given due consideration at the time
of the college’s establishment.
At present, classes are held in three buildings — the Main College Building, the
Annexe Building, and the Rashtraguru Surendranath Banerjee Campus — all located
in Monirampore, Barrackpore, approximately 3.6 km from Barrackpore Railway
Station, West Bengal.
Despite having three buildings, the college faces infrastructural challenges
that hinder the further expansion of educational facilities. Currently, we offer
Honours courses in fifteen subjects and General courses in twenty one subjects.
The advent of globalization and its emergent challenges demand serious attention
from policymakers and intellectuals. Competition has become increasingly
intense. To meet the growing demand for quality education and to address global
challenges, the college must uphold a high standard of academic excellence.
I believe that, despite limited resources, the college — with the help of its
efficient and dedicated faculty members and supportive staff — continues to meet
the needs of students from diverse social backgrounds. These students require
constant guidance and support to progress toward excellence, moving steadily
from darkness to light.
