Our Management, Past and recent
- Our first Principal enthused the colleagues to take an active interest in extra curricular activities. His fertile brain planned in a thousand ways to provide useful outlets to the students of this rural college. The elocution and debating clubs functioned freely with his active support. His plans included philatelical club , Camera club, periodical playing of music to the students, study of birds through binoculars, to observe stars using a telescope and many other stimulating activities. He used to acquaint the teachers with the latent trends in different fields of knowledge and advised them to follow contemporary trends through the foreign and native magazines of good standard. Our library can boast of a great number of books in Humanities, Sciences and on art, Sculpture and architecture.
Both the founder secretary and the first Principal were intellectuals with a good taste in literature, art, architecture, sciences etc. They planned several functions, seminars and conferences and organized them successfully. Eminent men like the Vice-Chancellors,
Scientists,ChiefJustices,Professors,Teachers,Industrialists,educationists, poets, persons in high position used to come and attended these functions. Laying foundation for the main building of the College by the President of India Sri V.V.Giri, the Decennial function, Silver Jubilee function, A.P. History Congress session were some of them. Our President of India Sri V.V.Giri, the great Scientist Nayudamma, Prof. Irfan Habib, Chairman of I.C.H.R., Prof. D.N. Jha of Delhi University, Prof. S. Naga Raju of Central University, Dr. M.L. Nigam, Prof. Dada Abdul Bakar of Nigeria etc., were a few among our distinguished guests.
Either the management or the Principal always encouraged the staff to improve their academic excellence. In return the staff motivated the students to reach the higher levels of learning . The management and the staff faced problems together as they were normal to any growing institution of learning. They overcame all the troubles with a conviction that this institution was a means of honest service in the cause of the poor and deprived. For eight years, our college was unaided.
Our management has born the cost of salaries, roughly a lakh of rupees per month even in those days. In 1977, the killer cyclone struck it and destroyed the major portion of the college. But our founders stood by our side and helped us substantially. Altogether by 1980, they gave 60 lakhs in cash, which went into buildings and other amenities.
When age crept upon Dr. N.V.Krishna Rao and he was unable to extend his services, Sri K.Umavara Murthy shouldered the responsibility as the Secretary and Correspondent. He molded the young staff members who were part time to perceive the spirit of the institution and the vision of the founders. After him, Sri V.Subba Rao, Joint Secretary of our Managing Committee and A.D.L.Prasad, M.D., Chagallu Sugars became the Correspondent and the Secretary consecutively. Sri V. Subba Rao an admirer and faithful follower of Dr. N.V.Krishna Rao has been working with the same commitment to develop college further. Sri A.D.L.Prasad a good administrator, with a real concern for the employees provided all amenities necessary to face modern challenges. Hence they have started two P.G. courses recently and a new chapter is opened in our history.
Even the Principals who worked after the retirement of Sri K.Umavara Murthy strived to make the vision of the management real as they have been in service from the beginning. Under their guidance, our College has moved forward to keep its reputation for ever and ever.

It is our objective to train up students in all dimensions. Our NSS, NCC and Physical Education wings have established a good record in the state. Besides many other associations are working to develop a broad out look among students.
In these Fouur and half decades of its existence, thousands of students passed through this college portals. Many colleges and schools have been established around and away from Nagaram in these years. Many of our students are working in these institutions along with many others in various fields. In their gratitude, they gifted old students buildings in the form of donations. In this way, our College has brought a silent revolution in our poverty ridden region .
Where once stood ruined walls and thorny bushes, now stand beautiful and fully equipped laboratories and spacious lecture halls, a beautiful library, often praised as an architectural marvel by distinguished visitors, Archaeological Museum, Administrative buildings, a set of staff quarters and hostel for boys and girls were built. A visitor to the college will at once be impressed by the clean, green and calm campus of our college. One leaves the institution with a bundle of pleasant feelings. All this has been possible because of the devoted staff, the disciplined students and the dynamic and enlightened management.
