It commenced operation precisely on 14th October, 1970 with an initial intake of sixty seven students and six teaching staff. The primary purpose of its establishment was to address the acute shortage of post-primary school teachers in the then North- western state, following rapid educational expansion at both primary and post-primary school levels. The college moved to its present permanent site in June 1974, and has to date, been headed by 14 chief Executives at different times under different nomenclatures.]
