About Sohra College, Sohra Government College

Formerly Sohra College, Sohra Government College achieved provincialized status in 2009. The upgrade of Sohra Government College to Provincialized College accorded administrative approval for a sanction amount of 12 crores on October 9, 2020.

With the sanction, the state government has facilitated infrastructural advancements, including academic buildings (equipped with classrooms, libraries, laboratories, and toilets), boys’ hostels, and girls’ hostels with advanced furniture and equipment.

The Provincialized College will facilitate access to multidisciplinary education for students in the district with the introduction of the Science and Commerce stream, eliminating the need to travel across and outside the state for access to higher education, which tends to be a financial incentive for aspiring students from the socioeconomic group.
