History

Kakaraparti Bhavanarayana College is truly a dream come true for many, especially for those who are residing in the old town of Vijayawada. The long cherished dream has been realized through the benevolence of Danaseela, Purapramukha and Vidya-Poshaka Sri Kakaraparti Bhavanarayana Shresti. The foundation stone of the college was laid on 6th November, 1964 by Sri Kasu Brahmananda Reddy, the then Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh. The college was constructed on 4.11 acres of land of the S.K.P.V.V. Hindu High Schools’ Committee. It commenced functioning fully ever since July, 1965. The college had a humble beginning with 278 students and a devoted staff of just nineteen under the visionary leadership of the Founder Principal Sri S. Sundaram.

The infrastructure of the college is admirable. The college has a state of the art library with a digital library and a spacious reading room. The college is embellished with expansive playgrounds and a well-equipped Gymnasium. The college is also endowed with an elegantly designed open air theatre, Kalanikethan with an open gallery and a seating capacity of 2500, which is one of the spectacular features of the college. Our college emblem symbolizes the noble ideals for which our institution stands. The sunrays, the book and the burning lamp, all represent the divine attributes which aim at dispelling darkness and spreading light. The motto “Thejasvina Vadhitamastu” a part of our daily prayer, truly expresses our pious wish. “Let the Divine Deity help us to carry on our “Adhyayana” that bestows luster on us both.

Eversince its inception in 1965,the College is known for its relentless striving towards transforming the student into an enlightened citizen. The college is ever vibrant and has evolved with the changing times. It has been adorned with Autonomy in the year 2010. As a college with state of art facilities and the accolades it received like the Best Laboratory, Best Academic achievement, Best Library, Best NSS Unit speaks volumes about its steadfast endeavour in trying to dispel ignorance from society by wielding the potential weapon of education.

The untiring efforts of the college eventually reflected in getting NAAC 'A' grade in 2018; with CPE in 2016 and All India 92nd Rank in NIRF by MHRD in 2017 which stands out to be the acme of academic achievement.
The College is presently affiliated to Krishna Univeristy, Machilipatnam and it is one of the very few megalithic and top notch structures providing superlative education in the entire district of Krishna. The accomplishments of the college thus far have been by stimulating its appetite to reach unexplored horizons, and the saga of blazing newer trails continue unabated.

Digital Library

It is noted that the basic characteristic of a good academic library is its total identification with its institution because the measure of its excellence is determined by the extent to which its resources and services support the academic pursuits of the institution.

The UG & PG library has a shelving capacity of more than 30,000 books which is regarded as an asset to any educational institution. Indeed, it is a treasure house to knowledge seekers. Amenities include a peaceful inner circle, comfortable seating for the students, and Wi-Fi accessible inviting reading areas.


Homeo Clinic

Homeopathy treats the whole person and not just the illness. A substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can be used to treat these symptoms when they occur in an ill person. Homeopathic medicine increases its curative powers and avoids unwanted side effects. It is a complete system that treats mental, emotional and physical illnesses. Because we believe the mind and body operate as one, so when we use this method of treatment to our students it not only cures them from their very illness but also to the full (body and soul.). It’s our pleasure Dr.Kishore Kumar, Homoeopathist, looks after out Homeo Clinic from 3pm to 5 pm to our college teaching staff, non-teaching staff, students and outside of the college persons with free of cost.


Bank

Banks play an important role as go-between, in the financial system. Banks are where people can safely deposit their savings.

We have State Bank of India in our Campus for our student’s scholarship needs. Each student holds a passbook with an account number and a debit card to access their account. Students scholarships are credited in their respective accounts, so that they can access to them when needed.


Canteen

Like educational psychologists, we too feel that a good canteen in a college could increase the academic performance of the students. It is a place where they can relax and hang out.

Food, Fresh and Healthy eating is the policy adopted by our college canteen. Hygienic food is given the priority with minimal charges. Serving time is managed fast not to give a chance for the students to bunk classes.


Utility Store

The utility store in the college campus provides all the stationary required to students & staff. The students can also avail the facility of photocopy in the utility store. Timings are from 9.00 am to 5.00 pm in all working days. The Stationery shop stocks all curriculum requirements for students and classroom stationery for staff.
