Principal's Desk

Dear Students,

Khalsa College Amritsar has a proud and glorious history of 133 years. It was established in 1892 with the noble motive of reviving Sikh values, promoting Punjabi language and culture and spreading education that is modern and aligned with science and technology. In the quest to achieve these objectives, the college has played a leading role in shaping an educated and progressive Punjab. Khalsa College, as an autonomous institution, is a matter of pride for the entire nation. The college consistently holds the first position among autonomous colleges in Punjab, according to the ranking by Educationworld (EW).

The alumni of the college have achieved great heights in academics, literature, politics, military, sports, and cultural and social services. They have brought laurels to the institution and contributed significantly to enhancing its global reputation. The college excels not only in academic pursuits but also demonstrates commendable performance in sports and cultural activities.

The majestic and spacious structure, which enjoys the status of Heritage building, stands as a symbol of inspiration, encouraging students to aspire for greatness and strive for excellence in life. This is why the students of the college demonstrate exemplary character and ethical conduct.


About

Khalsa College has been awarded an ‘A+’ grade for the fourth time by National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC). Its B.Sc. Agriculture program is accredited by the Indian Council of Agriculture Research (ICAR). The BBA and BCA courses are approved by AICTE.

Khalsa College, affiliated to Guru Nanak Dev University Amritsar, has been an autonomous college since session 2013-14. Hence, it has the freedom to choose and start new courses, design and revise its syllabi and conduct examinations in accordance with the guidelines laid down by the University Grants Commission (U.G.C.) and the affiliating university. Besides this, being autonomous signifies greater responsibility towards academic management and a stronger commitment to providing quality education. Though Autonomous, the degrees are awarded by Guru Nanak Dev University. This is the only college of Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar, which performs all such academic exercises. Indeed, this is the only college to introduce internal assessment in all courses. There are around 82 ongoing Undergraduate and Post-Graduate Degree programmes in this co- educational institution.

The New Education Policy-NEP-2020 has been adopted by the college, and the courses have been designed accordingly. Under this, the students after four years of graduation will have the option of completing Masters in one year. The CBEGS (Credit Base Evaluation and Grading System) has been successfully implemented in all courses. The primary objective of Khalsa College is to impart education that aligns with the evolving demands of the contemporary world. The institution strives to instill in its students a strong appreciation for their culture, language, history, and religion. Student concerns are addressed in a constructive and supportive manner, and all necessary facilities are provided to ensure their academic and personal growth. To all students joining Khalsa College for the 2025-26 session, I trust you will familiarize yourselves with the rules and regulations of the college, follow them with discipline, and uphold the dignity and proud legacy of Khalsa College.


Heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to all students as you embark on a journey toward a bright and promising future.
