Welcome to All Bengal Principals' Council

All Bengal Principals' Council – ABPC, a Registered Society, was formed on 11th January 1987 at a conference of Principals of affiliated non-government colleges under different universities of West Bengal.

ABPC is the only organization of Principals of affiliated non-government general degree colleges including B.Ed colleges and professional colleges like Law colleges. It is a purely non-political mass organization with the dual objective of bringing positive change in the academic scenario of West Bengal and solving institutional/professional problems of Principals and teachers alike.

The most notable achievement of the Council is the recognition by UGC, who invited ABPC to present its views regarding the formulation of UGC Regulation, 2009. ABPC is the apex body of seven university committees across West Bengal.

ABPC stresses the importance of sharing ideas for achieving quality and excellence in higher education and bringing higher education within the reach of every eligible youth at every corner of India – irrespective of caste, creed and religion.
