Narajole Raj College, one of the oldest colleges in the old Medinipur district, established in September 1966, is a wonderful phenomenon in the educational scenario of the Midnapore district. At a time when the darkness was prevailing all around and ignorance was rampant in the region, the Narajole Raj College appeared with a bacon of learning in the society. It ushered in a new path to higher education.  It fulfilled the long-cherished dreams and necessities of the young generation. 

The Higher Secondary course in science with subjects a combination of Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and mathematics was first introduced in 1979. After that, the undergraduate pass course level in pure science with a subject combination of physics, chemistry, and mathematics was introduced in 1983. The BOTANY GENERAL course was first introduced in 1991 and the HONOURS course in 2002. At first, the course was taught at the old building i.e., “RAJ BHAWAN” and now at the new building from December 2012, onwards.

Side by side with the traditional Honours Courses like English, Bengali, History, Philosophy, Political Science, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, and Zoology a new feather has been added to the teaching courses by introducing Botany as an Honours Subject.

From December 2012 onwards the Department of Botany has given the status of an independent practical examination centre of Vidyasagar University.

 

In fine, we are sure, despite certain infrastructural inadequacies of our BOTANY DEPARTMENT, we have our guts as well as parts to let the department go on ahead to fulfill our long-cherished desire, provided we are enriched, empowered, and invigorated with kind Co-operation and inspiration in all respects from the part of our honorable higher authority i.e., U.G.C. Let us, therefore, hope for the best keeping this hard mission in mind.
