ABOUT
Overview
K.G.R.L. College is located in Bhimavaram, a place hailed as ‘Second Bardoli’ by Mahatma Gandhi, a place where several thousands of Freedom fighters participated in the ‘Salt Satyagraha’ launched by Mahatma in the year 1930. The College enjoys a unique setting in the green fields. Its calm and serene atmosphere inspires the light of knowledge. It occupies a sprawling campus of 18 acres dotted with more than 25 buildings. The Bhimavaram Education Society was founded in July 1975 to expand educational opportunities for the people of Bhimavaram and its surrounding areas by establishing various educational institutions. Responding to the aspirations of the community and the dedication of the Society, Sri Kotikalapudi Govinda Rao generously contributed a significant donation for the establishment of K.G.R.L. Degree College. The college was inaugurated on August 20, 1975, by Sri M.R. Appa Rao, who was the Vice Chancellor of Andhra University at the time. Sri Mandali Venkata Krishna Rao, then serving as the Education Minister of Andhra Pradesh, graced the occasion as the Chief Guest.
