About College

The origin of K.B.P.G . College, Mirzapur is shrouded in the dim pre-history of certain school wits, intellectual's elder statesman, renowned lawyers and established businessmen, who were quite grieved to think of having no College in the city that can provide higher education to the students of Mirzapur. The real dream of our visionary founder was to implant an institution of higher education whose aim and objective was to promote skill & produce young people who are intellectually sound, morally upright, socially committed and economically self reliant, It was with this unflinching commitment that Late Shri Gayanath Agrawal, the then devout teacher of a peculiar instinct, in his stimulating speech galvanized all Managers, Principals, educated colleagues and citizens of Mirzapur to contemplate over this road unexplored and daunting. This Herculean task was finally welcomed by the Managing Committee and Trustees of Basant College, who in their written indenture on 10-07-1956 declared to donate a well built central building and campus of around 3.5 Acre area for establishment of K.B. Degree College.
