Message from Principal/Officer in Charge

Taki Government College started its journey in the year 1950 with the duty of fulfilling the academic ambitions of the local students post-partition. The contemporary education minister of West Bengal, Honourable Sri Harendranath Roy Chowdhury, was a distinguished resident of Taki. He played a key role in the establishment of the college. From the day of its inception, Taki Government College became instrumental in nurturing and shaping numerous and diverse young minds across a large spectrum of socio-economic backgrounds. Due to its geographical location, it acquired the legacy of training students from remote areas, many of whom were first-generation learners.

What does a College stand for, though? Is it merely a collection of classrooms and teachers, where one just gets the added agency of choosing their field of study? That would be a gross reduction of its institutional value. A college is an institution where the academic merit and achievements of the teachers are reflected onto the students’ own talents and skills, thus fostering an environment where growth and learning is not only encouraged but also cultivated. The staff members play a pivotal role in ensuring the smoothness of this process, with each member of Taki Government College bearing no exception to this spirit.

In a world where educational fees are increasing day by day, often to exorbitant amounts, the fee structure of Taki Government College and its hostels, being Government institutions, are quite reasonable. As a result, a large number of students from remote areas and economically backward sections can afford their education here. Students are also supported by a large number of scholarships, both government and non government, to help in overcoming whatever financial constraints they may be bound by, with the number of scholarship recipients in Taki Government College being one of the largest. Taki Government College plays an important role in inculcating students’ merits. It helps them in overcoming their difficulties, all the while leading them towards their goals. A distinguished alumni list reflects the glory and legacy of Taki Government College.

The number of students enrolled in Taki Government College is quite large, making it face some challenges related to infrastructural facilities. Even then, the college bears the responsibility to make the students aware that the reasonable fee structure of this College is only possible because of the Government's funding which, in essence, aided by the money of the tax-payers. This motivates the students to prove themselves not only as skilled professionals but also as responsible citizens of the country.
