The largest of trees has its origin in the tiniest of seeds. The sweetest of flowers has a modest beginning in the small bud. One small step of Armstrong on the moon has been a big jump for humanity. Every historic milestone has its beginning in the apparently simplest of actions. The history of mankind has repeatedly bourn testimony to this truth. The history of Prabhat Kumar College, Contai, one of the premier institutes of repute in the state, is no exception. The high tide of the Bengal Renaissance may have been more perceptible on the national front with the struggle for independence gaining the ultimate momentum, but its spirit had spiralled into every nook and corner of Bengal. The final shaping force came in the form of the Gandhian whirlwind that swept across the country in the 1920s and this southernmost sub-division of Bengal was graced by his auspicious visit in 1926.The torch of nationalist fervour that he carried provided the much-needed fire to the patriotic zeal of noble souls of the area and touched the chord of the magnanimous humanist Late Babu Biswambhar Dinda, a benevolent Zamindar of the locality. Yet to completely recover from the shock of the untimely death of his only son, late Prabhat Kumar Dinda, at the tender age of twenty-five, the big heart was still yearning with the burning desire of ‘doing’ something great for the spread of education in the area and he came forward with a princely donation of Rs. 44,527/- to the college fund and left a will bequeathing his whole property to a Board of Trustees with a direction to spend half the annual income from the property for maintenance and development of the college.
