Murshidabad, West Bengal | Approved By : Kalyani University - KU | Estd: 2008
Hazi A K Khan College is the lone representative institution of Higher Education at Hariharpara, a Block within Berhampore Sub-Division of Murshidabad District in West Bengal. This rural Block is considered as a Community Developing one as per administrative perspective, with a population of 2, 57,571 (Census, 2011), where minorities form 80.70%. The catchment area of the educational institutes here, include adjacent agricultural locale at large, with a little proportion of small scale industrial area. The Block was endowed with a considerable number of Primary, Secondary and Higher Secondary Institutions. But no institution was there to cater further education for the young aspirant stakeholders; predominantly the girls. The idea was initially conceived by a local visionary, fond of education; honourable Hazi Abdul Kader Khan who donated 1.82 acre of land to set up a college with a dream to explore dreams of thousands, who had to travel a long way to acquire higher education or to discontinue it midway. Afterwards, some local robust persons took timely initiatives in framing required Society Registration and completed other formalities with the Government. The long-cherished dream came true in 2008, when Hazi A K Khan College started its journey at Hariharpara High School getting affiliation from University of Kalyani with Honours and General Courses in some traditional disciplines in Arts. Very soon the institution was shifted to the present location set up partly by Government aids along with generous donations from local people and people’s representative. Primarily, the focus was on nurturing excellence in the local young, who would be mentored to achieve success in their later professional and entrepreneurial ventures and lead a decent life.
