Vidyasagar University, named after one of the most illustrious sons of Bengal as well as one of the doyens of Indian Renaissance, Pandit Iswar Chandra Vidyasagar, has grown out of a long cultural and educational movement in West Bengal in general and in the undivided district of Midnapore in particular. The idea of founding a University in the district was mooted by the various organizations, notably by the Regional Education Association, Midnapore, headed by Professor A.K.Gayen of IIT, Kharagpur. The Ghani Committee appointed by the U.G.C.also suggested,among others, for the setting up of a University in Midnapore on the ground of its having a compact area and a manageable number of colleges(at that time there were 36 colleges with an enrolment of about 42,000), and also of its having the great advantage of co-operation of the IIT, Kharagpur.
