Principal B.C.Chakrabarty, the founder principal of A.P.C.college

Principal B.C.Chakraborty was appointed in the tear 1962, after two years of the foundation of our College and shifted in the new building. During this period Prof. Jogesh Chandra Chakrabarty of Sanskrit acted as Prof.-in-charge. The founder Secretary, Mr. Haripada Biswas had some fascination on him. But he did not fare well in the interview to become Principal of the colleges. Then Principal B.C.chakrabarty ( of English Dept.) was appointed from among the panel of Principals . But he was appointed at the fag end of his career and completed 60 years of service of his life and  as he could not satisfy the de mands of the then secretary Mr. Haripada Biswas, he could not get the re-employment that was in vogue at that time.
During his period I would   be lacking if I don't mention two incidents happened in his time. I  got married on 13 Dec. 1965 in which occasion he was present and gifted a nice sari to my wife. But was not kind enough to me because helped in taking the decision of the deduction of my salary for three days after summer vacation of 1966 when I was absent. I informed him earlier that it would not be possible for me to remain present in the college as I was out of station for my honeymoon. When I met him after three days of the summer vacation, he did not inform me anything and I found to my astonishment on receiving my salary for the next month that a deduction of three days salary had been  made. I met him and asked the reason of deduction since  I had sufficient earn leave in my account. He used some unpleasant words and we had some heated exchanges. Though the managing committee had repaid the amount on my application showing rigid reasons. On another he was present , i.e., in the inaugural ceremony of a Kinder Garten School, Happy Home in Madhyamgram, I started for employing my wife who got trained in Montessori training course after her marriage.
