Govt. Mujibur Rahman Women's College, Bogra 3.96

Nearly two thousand and a half years ago,
Pundranagar (Mahastangarh) was the heart of
the glorious Pundra Civilization. This
prosperous ancient township has, in course of
time, culminated in becoming the present day
district town of Bogra. This town still bears
ample testimony to its former glory. As an
extension of its legacy, this town lying on the
stretch of land beside the Karotoa prides itself
on a number of educational institutions that
are beaming the shine of enlightenment
across the region. Govt. M.R. Women’s college
is one of those brilliant ones. This college was
set up on 31 July, 1963 on the edge of the
Subilkhal. Having been a non-government
college over a period of 15 years, it was
eventually nationalized on 1Feb, 1978. The
then eminent industrialist and patron of
education late Mujibur Rahman Bh. was one
of the key persons among its founders. The
college took its name from him.
