Chandpur Govt. College is one of the renowned colleges of Bangladesh. The college is a symbol of pride for the inhabitants of Chandpur. Hussain shaheed suhrawardy, Prime Minister of undivided Bengal, laid the foundation of the college on 15th June 1946. World War II acted as the catalyst behind the establishment of the college. The British Government had transferred the Intermediate section of Comilla Victoria College at Hasan Ali Govt. High School of Chandpur for the cause of safety as the combined/allied forces were being annihilated by the attack of Japanese during the end of World War II (1939 – 1945). When the section of the Victoria College had been withdrawn in 1946 after the end of the war, the local elites and educationists took a unanimous decision to set up a college permanently at Chandpur. It was decided to start the function of the college at the left-out army camp of the Aziz Ahmed Maidan. According to the decision, the college started its glorious journey with eminent educationist Mr. Paresh Chandra Ganguli at the chair of the Principal. With the inception of the college activities, the initiative of setting up its own building was taken. Different social elites, educationists, benevolent, and organizations came forward spontaneously with the donation of money and land.

Chandpur Govt. College is playing an extraordinary role in providing a comprehensive education to develop a nation from the moment of its birth. The institution is always committed to ensuring quality education for a large population of Chandpur district.

It is a pride and a great pleasure to know that the Bangladesh Government has organized a country-wide program of an opening website in every educational institution with a view to easy access to internet facilities. I convey my heart-appealing thanks to the Bangladesh Government for a well-timed and epoch-making endeavor. Chandpur Govt. College also is going to launch its own website. With the dreamy opening of the website Chandpur Govt. College enters into a golden age in the IT sector.

It will provide all necessary information to its teachers and students. Finally, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the teachers of the website committee for offering their efforts and services in introducing the website in this college.

I wish every success to the program.
