In the light of this urge some enthusiastic young men led by Shri N.L.Borgohain, Saifuddin Ahmed, Keshab Sharma, Sri Sarat Borkakaty and others took momentous decision to start a new college and accordingly, a public meeting was convened by Sri N.L.Borgohain at Amolapatty Natya Mandir, on 25th Sept 1962.
