UG & PG PROSPECTUS 2021-22 Preface Bhairab Ganguly College hereby presents its annual prospectus for the session 2021-22 with the intention of availing the newly admitted students of the essential information regarding the institution and the offered UG and PG courses. Special care has been taken to present all the dimensions of the institution including departmental profiles, staff details, campus facilities, committee details, extra-curricular activities and special achievements in the most palatable way possible. With the newly emergent need for prioritizing the accessibility of all the college staff, all their contact details have been appended in due places. The path of struggle and glorious achievements that has led to the present glory has been well documented to get the students acquainted with the heritage they now become a part of. The constraints of the pandemic have compelled the institution to prepare the soft copy of the prospectus only. With the possible improvement of the situation, however, one can hope to bring back the hard copy with its ineffable charm in the sessions to come. Presently the prospectus aims to serve as a token for all the dreams the institution has realized, as well as the ones it strives to turn into reality.

2 | UG & PG PROSPECTUS, 2021-22 Inception

Bhairab Ganguly College is an important academic institution situated at the northern fringe of the Kolkata metropolis, in the north of Dunlop bridge nodal point. The college is located at the core of Kamarhati Municipal area with Barrackpore Trunk Road in the west and Sealdah Main Section railway track in the east. It is well-connected by bus and rail routes. The college was established on 3rd September 1968 with a vision to open a gateway of higher education for the youth of the locality. It turned out to be a distinguished landmark of higher education. Sri Jibandhan Ganguly, a renowned social worker, philanthropist and educationist, along with some local educationists, approached the then Government of West Bengal in 1955 to establish a Degree College on eleven bighas of land, to be contributed from his ancestral property. The Government of West Bengal accepted the proposal, acquired the land along with fourteen bighas of vested adjacent lands and proceeded with the construction of the college. The college was named after Late Bhairab Ganguly, the great grandfather of Sri Jibandhan Ganguly. It became a Government sponsored college and was recognized under section 2(f) and 12 (b) of the UGC Act. Bhairab Ganguly College started its journey with twenty one students and four teachers. The Arts section of Ramkrishna Mission Vivekananda Centenary College was merged with this newly established college and a good number of experienced teachers joined the new educational institution at Belgharia enhancing the faculty strength of the college.

3 | UG & PG PROSPECTUS, 2021-22 From the Desk of the President of the Governing Body In this constantly changing world, education has positive implications for the world's most pressing problems. Since its inception in 1968, Bhairab Ganguly College has been playing a leading role in spreading knowledge in the north suburban locality of Kolkata metropolis. The Governing Body and the teachers of the college are committed to impart value-based quality education to its students to accomplish its vision and mission.

Beginning with twenty-one students and four teachers, it has now become a premier institute offering a wide array of courses in science, humanities, and commerce to nearly 5000 students. It is a matter of pride that the college was reaccredited with Grade-A in the second cycle of NAAC visit in 2016. By virtue of its dedicated scholarly pursuits, much have been achieved in this short journey of fifty years. But still, certain avenues need further exploration and together we will strive to take our college to a new height.

Sri Tapas Roy President, Governing Body Bhairab Ganguly College

4 | UG & PG PROSPECTUS, 2021-22 From the Desk of The Principal Principal is a very respectable position as we all know. So today when I have been vested with this rank, I take this opportunity to express my ideas about this position.

I feel that no matter whichever rank or position each one of us belong to, we must always be able to revere every person's dignity with respect, regards, trust, joy, empathy, cooperation and with our deeds/action. I feel only then will these worldly ranks be elevated to spiritual perspectives. If our actions, principles, judgements, and feelings be correct, then of course we will learn to respect each other. And to uphold this position, the teachings given by you must be exercised repeatedly.

If we can see every human being as our own soul form, only then can we give him/her the due respect.

If I can retain the trust of everything which means crystal transparency, I will be able to trust everybody.

If we can receive satisfaction/ pleasure with proper judgement of every situation then surely, we will feel the joy and oneness for everybody.

If we can judge each-others' conditions as our very own, then readily we will feel the empathy for everyone.

If I can think every colleague as my essential organ, then of course we will have a cooperative mentality.

And if I can perform every work void of the sense of ego, I will surely be transformed into an honest employee.

70 | UG & PG PROSPECTUS, 2021-22 Social Outreach Programme

About the Unnat Bharat Abhiyan 2.0 programme: Bhairab Ganguly College has adopted the Unnat Bharat Abhiyan 2.0 programme initiated by the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Govt. of India. The programme is inspired by the vision of transformational change in the processes of rural development by leveraging higher educational institutions to help build the architecture of an Inclusive India. The Mission of Unnat Bharat Abhiyan is to enable higher educational institutions to work with the people of rural India in identifying region-specific challenges to development and evolving appropriate and realistic solutions for accelerating sustainable growth. It also aims to upgrade the capabilities of both the public and the private sectors in responding to the development needs of rural India.

Objective of the programme: The college aims to facilitate the overall development of the adopted villages by combining knowledge and training. The solutions designed will cater to the immediate and long- term needs of the villages by making the villagers self- reliant through knowledge and practice.

Adopted villages: The college has resolved to make the following adopted villages self-reliant through knowledge and practice: Bagdiha, Ranibandh Block, Bankura district Chaltha, Ranibandh Block, Bankura district Kalyam, Ranibandh Block, Bankura district Makhnu, Ranibandh Block, Bankura district Ledapakur, Ranibandh Block, Bankura district

Preliminary Meeting with G.P. Members: On 15th December 2018, we had a preliminary discussion with the G.P. members of the 5 adopted villages to discuss the issues faced by them. The members welcomed our efforts to interact and were more than willing to share with us the issues/ problems faced by the local people of the villages.

71 | UG & PG PROSPECTUS, 2021-22 Goals: Certain areas needing our sustained efforts have been identified, these include: Construction of metalled roads Installation of solar power generation units for street lights and farming equipment Rainwater harvesting systems Water resource management Digitalization in schools (Computer literacy centre and internet connectivity) Instituting tailoring and handicrafts training units (initiatives for self-employment and entrepreneurship development) Encourage the literacy of adult women villagers Awareness training programme for community health and sanitation

Recent Activities in the adopted village : COVID-19 crisis (First Wave): Masks were distributed among the villagers of the five adopted villages and awareness was spread among them regarding the symptoms of the disease. An extensive list of dos and don'ts was explained to them by the local Gram Panchayat Mukhia. Our college took the initiative of distributing 600 kgs of rice and other food items among the needy tribal community of the villages to support nearly 200 distressed tribal people during the lockdown.

Solar Light Illumination: Members of the college visited one of the adopted villages, Bagdiha, to distribute 40 solar lanterns to the school-going children of Bagdiha Primary School. These lanterns were distributed using the funding provided by UBA 2.0 programme under the category of technology customization. The objective behind this action was to illuminate the homes, which are deprived of a basic amenity, that of an electricity connection, in order to facilitate an environment conducive to the study hours necessary for school-going children in the village. Since most of the households have atleast two to three school-going children, the college could enhance technology customization by two to three times. The action was very warmly received by the households, especially school children who became the direct beneficiaries of this action. The photographs bear testimony to the success of the event. The college looks forward to receiving such funding support from the UBA 2.0 for proper implementation of this plan in the other villages under the adopted village cluster as well.

72 | UG & PG PROSPECTUS, 2021-22 Survey for Gram Panchayat Development Plan (GPDP) Study : The college has scheduled its preliminary survey of the villages from 16th to 18th January, 2019. A group of dedicated teachers and students will interact and collect data meticulously for Gram Panchayat Development Plan (GPDP) study and need assessment. Keeping in mind, the specific needs of the indigenous community in the villages, the survey will focus upon providing sustainable, innovative, cost-effective and implementable solutions to address the issues faced by the villagers.

Social Outreach Programme during COVID-19 Pandemic: The college contributed generously to the COVID-19 relief fund. A flex banner displaying the symptoms of COVID-19 and the measures of prevention complying with WHO guidelines was displayed at the main gate of the college to spread awareness among the local community. COVID-19 screening app was made by the Computer Science department of the college and circulated through Google forms.

As a part of our community outreach program, the NSS Unit of Bhairab Ganguly College distributed grocery items (rice, daal, mustard oil, atta etc.) among 60 families of Prantik Nagar (the adopted slum of our NSS Unit) on 18.10.2020. Our Vice-Principal, Bursar, Dr. Sahana Chakraborty and many non-teaching staff and NSS volunteers of our college were involved in this endeavour to express our solidarity during the economic crisis we are currently experiencing during this COVID-19 pandemic.

COVID-19 Relief Fund for the Students: Bhairab Ganguly College, as per its persistent reputation of lending its helping hand to those who need it, has recently decided to raise a COVID-19 Relief Fund to help its underprivileged students within its limited capacity. With the enthusiastic participation of all the staff, the institution has been able to provide need-based monetary assistance to a large number of students for purchasing medicines, recharging their smartphones for continuing their online classes and for procuring some other basic amenities of life, on the basis of online applications received from them. This noble initiative will definitely ensure a more sustaining teaching- learning ambience during the dark days of COVID-19 Pandemic.

Birth Centenary of Bharat Ratna Shri Satyajit Ray (1921- 1992) The lukewarm preparedness for Bharat Ratna Shri Satyajit Ray's centenary celebrations on May 2, 2021 ascribed largely to the pandemic and the coinciding of the Legislative Assembly Election results led to a severe handicap for many admirers in Bengal to observe and celebrate the occasion properly. People had to confine themselves within their respective bio-bubbles and devote themselves once again to relishing the movies and writings of this global icon which cut across the restrictions of time, space, age, language and ethnicity. That would be by far the most fruitful way to pay homage to a person, a leader of the Brahmo Samaj, whose film-making methods exhibited his faith in minimalism and utter distaste for exhibitionism, hero-worshipping and ritualistic practices of institutionalized religions. A recipient of 32 Indian National Film Awards, a Golden Lion, a Golden Bear, 2 Silver Bears, many additional awards at international film festivals and ceremonies, and an Academy Honorary Award in 1992, Satyajit Ray was honoured with the Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian award, in 1992. He was also awarded the Commander of the National Order of the Legion d'honneur (Legion of Honour), the highest decoration in France by the President of France in 1987. Having directed 36 films, including feature films, documentaries and shorts, Ray proved himself to be an auteur in the real sense by often writing the script and dialogue, designing the set, composing the music score, and explaining all the minute details regarding visual-verbal aspects of film-making to the actors. Combining his Shantiniketan-bred sensibility with a keen knowledge of Western movies, music and visual arts, Ray had early formed a truly cosmopolitan world view. His wide range of interests and activities can be acknowledged in his being a path-breaking calligrapher and unquestionably the best-selling Bengali author till date. Having influenced the generations of Bengali film makers and renowned cinema personalities all over the world, Satyajit Ray has been hailed as one of the few global icons Bengal, and even India, has produced in the past century. Several of his fictional creations like Feluda, Professor Shonku and Jatayu have become an integral part of Bengali popular perception, whereas his famous juggling of words has considerably shaped the Bengali language in literature and especially in fields of journalism. As one of the last members of the phenomenon known as the Bengal Renaissance, Ray has left behind a very rich cultural heritage not likely to be eclipsed any sooner.
