About the College
a. Establishment
Government Model College, Borkhola (GMCB) was set up in the year 2020 in Cachar district under Assam Government’s initiative to set up 15 model colleges in rural areas in the State with Rashtriya Uchchatar Shiksha Abhiyan’s (RUSA) financial assistance to provide quality Higher education to the students of rural areas of Borkhola. Out of total model colleges to be set up, nine were planned to set up exclusively for women and other six were to set up as co-educational colleges and Government Model College, Borkhola is one of those six co-educational colleges that was set up in the rural area of Borkhola.

From the Principal’s Desk
“Education is the most powerful weapon. We can use to change the world”
Nelson Mandela
It’s my proud privilege to say that the Government of Assam has introduced a scheme with central assistance for establishment of Model Degree Colleges in educationally backward districts where Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) for higher education is less than the national GER. Although initially these institutions are developed as institutions for Higher Secondary and undergraduate level education, the government has the plan of introducing Post Graduate (PG) level in these institutions in the future.
The Government Model College, Borkhola, Cachar was established in 2020. The college has a vast campus spread over 38 (thirty eight) bighas. It is situated on a unique zero pollution hilltop surrounded by hills and greenery at Borkhola. It’s a dream project of the Government of Assam with financial support from Rashtriya Uchchatar Shiksha Abhiyan (RUSA). Read More
