Vivekananda College: Standing out with its own legacy & grandeur
Established in 1986 under the University of Calcutta, Vivekananda College started its journey with a handful of students and later diversified its honours subjects.
Due to the disruption caused by the Lok Sabha polls and heat waves leading to the closure of educational institutions, the state government has opted to cancel the 26-day summer vacation for colleges, professional colleges, and technical institutes.
This decision aims to facilitate the completion of syllabi ahead of semester exams.
According to the officials, the state has already lost two weeks of classes in colleges, making it increasingly challenging to cover the syllabus if the summer break is retained in higher education.

To compensate for the cancellation of the summer break, the education department has opted to grant 26 days of earned leave to the working staff of the colleges.
