About the College
Purbanchal College, formerly known as “Silapathar Commerce College” due to its dual streams in Arts and Commerce, was renamed by order of the Govt. of Assam and Dibrugarh University. Established in 1996, it is the only premier institution offering higher education in both Arts and Commerce in the Jonai Legislative Assembly Constituency (114 ST Reserved). Located in the socio-economically backward interstate border area between Assam and Arunachal Pradesh, the college serves a diverse population of castes, creeds, tribal, and ethnic groups, many of whom are first-generation students from socially deprived families.
Purbanchal College is situated at Jyotinagar in Silapathar Town, just 1/2 km from the Silapathar-Lekabali main road. The college environment is calm, quiet, and healthy, fostering academic growth. Since its inception, the college has provided UG-level education, serving both local and Arunachal Pradesh students.
The college received permanent affiliation from Dibrugarh University in 2007, and later, UGC’s 2(f) and 12B recognition. Provincialized by the Govt. of Assam in 2013, it continues to evolve with new courses, ICT introduction, and infrastructure development.
