Sukumar Sengupta Mahavidyalaya

.. Few words about the college from the desk of the Teacher-in-Charge

न हि ज्ञानेन सदृशं पवित्रमिह विद्यते- श्रीमद्भगवद्गीता, 4.38. (There is nothing in this world as purifying as knowledge.)

Sukumar Sengupta Mahavidyalaya, nestled in the nourishing bed of Keshpur, near Paschim Medinipur, is purely rural college, imparting education to young and eager minds of this region since its inception in the year 2004. Sahid Kshudiram Centre for Education and Development, a registered society dedicated for the developments of the underdeveloped denizens of this region, decided to set up a college in such a locality that is predominantly inhabited by socially and economically disadvantaged people comprising SC, ST and Minority people. Funds were raised from generous individuals and establishments and infrastructure facilities in the form of class-room, library, laboratory etc. were created. 6 (Six) acres of land was procured and a magnificent three-storied building which has by this time been renovated and extended was set up in the midst of verdurous natural beauty. In the year 2005 the new college obtained recognition from the Department of Higher Education, Govt. of West Bengal followed by affiliation to the Vidyasagar University in the same year. Sukumar Sengupta Mahavidyalaya embarked on its voyage with only 123 undergraduate students in the academic session 2005 – 2006. The institution has recognized by UGC in the year of 2016. In 2025, the Institute was accredited by NAAC and was awarded with ‘B’ grade.
