Darjeeling Government College (DGC) Darjeeling

Darjeeling,
West Bengal

Darjeeling Government College as it stands today since 5th August, 1948, has traversed a long way in serving the community. Darjeeling is very fortunate to have a government college of this stature and potentiality in this district town.

The college is situated at the foothills of the eastern sub-himalayan region at an altitude of 2134 meters. It stands on the Leblong Cart Road near the Padmaja Naidu Himalayan Zoological Park and the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute.

A new Science and Geography Block along with a new chamber of the Principal have been added to the existing structure without disturbing its original structural identity.
