West Silchar College first started its journey in 1985 under Gauhati University. The genesis of the College was the outcome of great thinking of education loving people of greater West Silchar area to fulfill the need of higher education of the common masses of this vast downtrodden area across up to Indo-Bangladesh Border inhabitant mainly by SC, ST, OBC and backward minority community people.
