About Govt. College, Nedumangad:
The Government College, Nedumangad affiliated to the Kerala University is one of the premier institutions of its kind in the state of Kerala. A long cherished dream of the people of Nedumangad Taluk came true when in response to the request by the popular college sponsoring committee, the Government accorded sanction for starting a government college as per G.O.(Rt.)1760/81 H.Edn. dated 26-8-1981. The area, which the college is meant to serve, has a very high economic potential but is educationally backward. The University sanctioned affiliation to two batches of P D C, one with world history, Indian history & Economics as optional subjects and the other with full commerce.
The college started functioning on 28-8-1981. Prof. K. Sreedharan Nair took charge as principal on the F.N. of 28-8-1981. The College was inaugurated by the then chief minister of Kerala Sri E. K. Nayanar on the 16th September 1981 at a colourful function in which a large number of students, parents & the public participated. Classes were started on 22nd September 1981. During the 36 years of its existence the college has won distinctions in the field of sports & cultural activities. As a result of the co-operation from all quarters, the sponsoring committee has succeeded in procuring land and constructing buildings for the college at AKKOTTUPARA, about one kilometer away from the heart of the town.
