The dream of establishing a womens' college in the locality began to get hold in reality after the liberation of the country.
In different meetings & seminars a strong claim for the establishment of a womens' college came from the reputed leaders & persons of thisarea. It was 18th April 1981. A temporary committee was formed & a place adjacent to Habiganj Girl's High School was selected for the propsed womens'college under the cordial effort & smart management of the then subdivisional officer Mr. Abdur Sattar . This man was also able to establish a fund of 75.000/00 taka for the college & there by secured a place of gratitude in the heart of the people of Habiganj. Later the first Deputy Commissioner of Habiganj, Mr.Shah Nazmul Alam & Mr. Hedayetul Islam chowdhury (ex-D.C) also took active steps in raising the college fund.
