KALYANI MAHAVIDYALAYA

About Institution

Kalyani was established in 1953 as a satellite Town about 48 kilometers north of Kolkata. Designed to become an educational and industrial hub, Kalyani was affectionately called the dream-child of Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, the then Chief Minister of West Bengal. Though two Universities, two engineering colleges and a good number of regional and state level institutions and a number of excellent schools are located in Kalyani, there was no degree college in the town. Kalyani Mahavidyalaya was established in 1999 to cater not only to the needs of Kalyani, but also the vast areas in Nadia, Hooghly and North 24 Parganas.
