Established in the year 1999, erstwhile privately managed Jawalaji Degree College Jawalamukhi run under the auspices of Jawalaji Shiksha Samiti and taken over by the Government of Himachal Pradesh, Department of Higher Education on 8th June, 2016, is a pioneer of higher education in this area of district Kangra and Jawalamukhi Assembly Constituency in particular. The motto of the college “Sa Vidhya Ya Vimuktaye” i.e. ‘Knowledge is one that Liberates’ truly inspires our students to become real life soldiers to defend and preserve our traditions and territory through knowledge and wisdom.
It’s a matter of great honour and immense pleasure to lead this college which stands for academic excellence and exemplary achievements in sports and cultural activities. This institute is catering to the needs of more than 1100 students at present in three streams, i.e., Arts, Science and Commerce, along with self-finance courses like BBA, BCA and PGDCA. Since the past two decades, the institution has served the academic needs in higher education to the best of satisfaction which has borne fruits as distinguished personalities and leaders in different fields. The amiable environment of the institution and the team of highly qualified and experienced faculty, who strive to contribute actively to the needs and aspirations of the students, have nurtured creativity, resilience, and leadership qualities among the students for the development of versatile personalities.
The highly committed non-teaching staff, supportive PTA, and the concerted efforts of the faculty and principals of yester-years have played a pivotal role in shaping this college as a leading institute of learning in this part of district Kangra. The college has progressed — not merely moved — during the past two decades.
It is an honor to say that the college has created a state-of-the-art Computer Lab and ICT Seminar Hall for effective teaching. A Career Guidance Cell in the college channels students in the right direction in their studies, goals, and careers ahead by organizing multiple seminars and sessions.
I look forward to and welcome you all to be a part of the family of Government College Jawalaji, Jawalamukhi, in the new academic session. I hope all of you will share the vision of the college and help to maintain an amicable environment, where students flourish and bring laurels to the institution and, above all, to the nation. The time spent in GC Jawalaji would prove to be the most exhilarating years of life, creating memorable moments and bonds lasting for a lifetime.
Jai Hind!
