Considering the need for women's education, citizens of Ara felt the necessity of establishing a dedicated institution. A meeting of eminent personalities was held on November 5, 1958, where it was decided to begin higher education for women in Ara. A governing body was formed under the coordination of Sri Ram Naresh Singh.
Realizing the importance of women’s education for holistic social development, Mahanth Mahadevanand Giri, a visionary leader, made a generous contribution—both in cash and kind—for the establishment of this college.
