Located in a historically significant area where the fort of Raja Somashekara Nayaka once stood, the college was set up in an ideal rural setting under the aegis of V.V. Sangha, Ballari. The institution came into existence through the generous donation of ₹1,00,000 by the late Sri Ambli Mallappa and the gift of 6.93 acres of land, including a ready building basement, by Sri Seshaji Hastimal Jain.

The founding of the college was made possible by the tireless efforts of visionary leaders of V.V. Sangha—Sri Allum Karibasappa, Sri N. Thippanna, and Sri Mariyappa—along with prominent figures from Harapanahalli such as Sri T.M. Gangadharaiah, Sri K. Divakara, Sri Katti Seturamachar, Sri Arundi Ningappa, Sri G. Kotrappa, Sri Bidri Virupakshappa, Sri Ambli Shivashankarappa, Sri Kotreshappa, Sri K. Malkappa, and other dedicated citizens. Their commitment to advancing higher education for the youth of Harapanahalli and surrounding villages culminated in the founding of this institution.
