A Beginning of Revolution in Higher Education - a humble effort of RAMANUJ GUPTA MEMORIAL CHARITABLE TRUST in fulfilling one of the cherished dreams of founder President & visionary Dr. Rahul Gupta.

Ramanuj Gupta Degree College has emerged as one of the brightest stars in the universe of higher education, by providing high quality education. It was established in the loving memory of late Ramanuj Gupta, the eldest son of late Dr. Rahul Gupta, eminent physician in the field of medical science of this region and the founder father of the Ramanuj Gupta Memorial Charitable Trust, who said: 'I had a Dream of a Degree College.' A year after the demise of Dr. Rahul Gupta, his legacy was carried forward with the establishment of Ramanuj Gupta Degree College on 30th July, 2017, as an initiative of the Ramanuj Gupta Memorial Charitable Trust headed by visionary and diligent leader and youngest son, Mr. Rudra Narayan Gupta.

The college initially offered B.A and B.Com courses under non-CBCS curriculum for both pass and honours students and then in 2018 the CBCS curriculum was adopted. And Science section was introduced in September 2019 with Physics, Chemistry, Zoology, Botany, Maths and Statistics subjects under Assam University, Silchar. Presently, with the introduction of National Education Policy 2020, the college is running all its courses under this scheme.

Further, an educational institution has a profound role to play in the life of an Individual, society and the nation at large, thereby looking into the future needs, scope and prospects of students. Ramanuj Gupta Degree College, is committed in creating a similar environment by offering trust in quality education.

The college is well-equipped with dedicated and qualified teachers, efficient office-staff, Science laboratories, State-of-the-art mass communication studio, Computer Laboratory, Smart-classrooms, CCTV, Central Library, Canteen, Conference room and other basic amenities. Moreover, the college actively organises workshops, seminars and lectures on topics of regional, national and international importance.

It is often heard of that 'Destiny cannot be checked' and that is why perhaps, nothing could save our beloved son Ramanuj Gupta (Raja) from the hands of inevitable destiny. He left for heavenly abode on 14th November 1997 on account of sudden and severe cardiac failure at the age of 23 years only. In spite of being aware of the saying of Shakespeare "All that live must die", his departure from amongst us has created a great vacuum which would never be filled up. Still we have consoled and comforted ourselves by resting our faith on the maxim "Whom the Gods love, die young".

In fact, Ramanuj had all the qualities of head and heart. He was gentle, honest, sensitive, selfless, obedient and accommodating. His heart always cried for the poor and the needy. He possessed a very special knack for science subjects and thereby he comfortably passed Computer Engineering from B.I.T Bangalore obtaining First Class marks. He was going to join Motorola Group of Companies but death departed him from all that he had. Above all, he was in love with poetry and he also spilt ink to write quite a good number of poems.

During his brief span of life, he always wanted to make his services available for the society in which he lives. Ramanuj had his dreams and vision. In order to make his dreams a reality, we have taken the initiative to set up "Ramanuj Gupta Memorial Charitable Trust". The main objective of the Trust is 'Service to the poor with potentialities'. The Trust believes in heart and soul that "God loveth a cheerful give'. The maiden venture of the Trust is the establishment of one full-fledged Science College here at Silchar, situated in the southern part of Assam. The College is known as "Ramanuj Gupta Junior College" and a high school named as "Ramanuj Vidyamandir". A good number of renowned educationists and veteran teachers of this town have been extending their helping hands in all possible ways to make this project a great success.

We will also not willingly forget the generous donors who have stood beside us in order to translate the dreams of our last son Ramanuj into practice. It would be a matter of great consolation for us if all of you extend your co-operation and help to us in the coming days too.

Ramanuj is no more with us but in the words of Tennyson, "He seems so near and yet so far" and that very feeling of nearness perhaps inspires us to do something which would give rest and peace to the departed soul of our beloved son.

The emergence of Ramanuj Gupta Degree College (RGDC) is a dream comes true. In its humblest way, Ramanuj Gupta Memorial Charitable Trust is striving to create an ideal platform in the domain of higher education for teaching learning facility in three streams mainly Arts, Science & Commerce (both Pass and Honours) for the learners of Barak Valley and its surrounding states. Ramanuj Gupta Degree College does everything differently and it always takes care of all comprehensive development of the human resources. Beyond the bind of the syllabus, RGDC is taking care of the promotion of co-curricular activities, skill development, innovative practices, development of creative zeal allied with the initiation to create an effective platform called “INSPIRE” for providing coaching to the students for central and state level civil services jobs along with other competitive examinations. These are parts of our mission and vision for youth empowerment and women empowerment. RGDC is still in its state of infancy and it has to go ahead many more miles. I am sure that receiving the support of the stakeholders, in the coming days, the college will gradually acquire its desired goal.
I feel like to pronounce with added enthusiasm that the installation of Science Stream from the academic session 2019-20 is perhaps one of the best moments of RGDC thus far. During the critical face just prior to introduction of Science Stream, I have noticed a sense of “no matter what comes…” amongst all the members associated with this assignment. We will have to continue with unabated spirit and passion to create a quality centre of higher education. I am very much hopeful to see RGDC in the pedestal of success in its entire endeavour.
With warmest welcome and good wishes to the freshers as well as parents and guardians.
