History is a dialogue between past and present. Without knowing the past tradition of our country and society we cannot make advancement towards future. Therefore The Department of History practices real history based on proper source materials. It is one of the oldest departments in our college when intermediate course was first introduced as early as 1887. In 1955, when the college was affiliated to B.A. standard of the University of Calcutta, History was introduced as an Elective subject in B.A. pass course. As demands from students grew, honours course was introduced in 2002 after a proper inspection by the team from the University of Calcutta with an intake capacity of 25. Since then the Department has been trying in many ways to bring about improvements qualitatively and in quantitative terms. Now there are two full time faculty and three State Aided College Teachers.
