Principal's Address

Dear Students

Welcome to Government College, Ani at Haripur, a vibrant hub of learning nestled in the heart of our stunning rural landscape. It is with great pride and enthusiasm that I greet you as the Principal of this wonderful institution. I am truly honoured to address you through our website, which serves as a gateway to our shared journey in pursuit of knowledge, growth, and community empowerment.

Whether you are a new student embarking on an exciting educational journey or a returning scholar ready to take on new challenges, we are delighted to welcome you to our academic family. Our college is more than just an academic institution; it is a nurturing ground for ideas, creativity, and collaboration. Here, we value and embrace the strength of our rural roots while aspiring to reach new heights academically, socially, and personally.

The foundation of this institution was laid on June 27, 2006, when there was a great need and strong public demand for such a higher education institute in the region. In the initial phase this college was run temporarily in a small campus at Ani. In 2012, the college was shifted to a grand new building located in Haripur. Since then the college has created its own unique identity, and has provided a multi-facility-rich campus to the students.

As you explore our website and campus, you will discover a wealth of resources aimed at boosting your educational experience. From academic programmes and extracurricular activities to support services and campus events, we are here to help you realize your full potential. I encourage you to take advantage of just about everything our college has to offer.

As you pursue your interests and passions, remember that learning extends beyond textbooks and classrooms. We are committed to providing a diverse range of extracurricular activities, clubs, and organizations that allow you to develop leadership skills, and create memories that will last a lifetime. I urge you to participate actively, step outside of your comfort zone, and take pride in being a member of a community that values collaboration and creativity.

Our college offers graduate courses in Arts, Commerce, and Science, all taught by highly educated professors. With approximately 1000 students, the college offers a variety of facilities for student development, including interactive classrooms, a multipurpose auditorium, a library, an e-library along with e-resource centre, reading rooms, a language lab, music rooms, a table tennis room, a first aid room, a girls’ common room, a canteen, a gymnasium, and a playground. The college also provides a variety of opportunities for student development, including the National Service Scheme, National Cadet Corps, Rovers and Rangers, Youth Red Cross, Red Ribbon Club, Road Safety Club, English Literary Society, Sahitya Parishad, Electoral Literacy Club, and various subject organizations. Students prepare for the next stage of their lives through the curriculum, as well as co-curricular and extracurricular activities.

Education is a powerful tool, and our college is dedicated to creating an inclusive and supportive environment that encourages each student to succeed. We value our students' diverse backgrounds and experiences, which enrich our college community. Our esteemed faculty members are committed to creating an engaging learning environment that inspires students not only to excel academically but also to be responsible and compassionate citizens.

As a college in the rural atmosphere, we understand the importance of community engagement. Our mission extends beyond the classroom; we want to help our students become active members of their community.
