Pachhunga University College (PUC) is a public institute in Aizawl, Mizoram, and the only constituent college of Mizoram University, a central university established by an Act of Parliament of India. Founded in 1958 as Aijal College, it is the oldest and largest college in Mizoram, by enrolment and campus size.[1] It started with intermediate of arts (equivalent of higher secondary education) courses, and later expanded to bachelor's degrees in arts, commerce and science. With the opening of master's degree courses in Mizo, philosophy and life sciences, it became the first postgraduate college in Mizoram.[2]

The college is named in honour of Pachhunga, a leading businessman and politician, who funded its initial management in 1962. It became a university college when the North Eastern Hill University incorporated it as its only constituent college in 1979. The permanent campus, occupied since 1965, is situated in College Veng, a locality at the eastern end of Aizawl. The 138-acre campus is the only verdant forest reserve in Aizawl, and is referred to as the "lung of the city." For its conservation of forests, it received the Indira Priyadarshini Vrikshamitra Awards in 1995, a national award for pioneering and innovative works in afforestation and wasteland management, from the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Government of India.

It received the Best College award from the Zoram Research Foundation, consecutively in 2004 and 2006. Between 2009 and 2013, the Department of Science and Technology of India awarded the college with a special scheme of Fund for Improvement of Science and Technology Infrastructure (FIST). In 2011, the Department of Biotechnology of India set up Institutional Biotech Hub, which was upgraded to Advanced Institutional Biotech Hub in 2017. The same year, DBT awarded its Star College Scheme. In 2017, the University Grants Commission made it College with Potential for Excellence.[3] In 2021, the DBT awarded the college its first DBT-Boost to University Interdisciplinary Life Science Departments for Education and Research programme (DBT-BUILDER).

In 2022, the National Assessment and Accreditation Council classified it as "A+" grade with a CGPA of 3.37, the highest score in northeast India. The National Institutional Ranking Framework placed it at 45th among colleges in India, the only college within the top 100 list, and thus, the highest rank from northeast India.

The college is ranked 35th among colleges in India by the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) in 2024.[4]

History

[edit]
Busts of Pachhunga and his son Lalhmingthanga near the entrance of PUC.

After the independence of India from the British Empire in 1947, the Mizo people were governed under the Government of Assam as Lushai Hills district. By 1950s, many Mizo people had completed secondary education with no further opportunity. J. Malsawma made the first provocative petition for the establishment of college by writing an open letter titled "Vana Pa College" in MZP Magazine;[5] but to no avail. He and H.K. Bawichhuaka set up what they called an "Organising Board" at Pachhunga's house in Dawrpui, Aizawl, in 1957. By then, a philanthropic entrepreneur Pachhunga, known as the "most prosperous Mizo businessman" or "the wealthiest man in Mizoram", was made chairman of the board. The board held a public meeting in June 1957 at the Boys’ Middle English School, wherein the public unanimously voted the Deputy Commissioner of Lushai Hills as chairman of the board.[6] The Deputy Commissioner then was adamant. In April 1958, Lawrence Singh Ingty from Mikir Hills become the new Deputy Commissioner. Quick to action, Ingty created the first Organising Board under his chairmanship, with Bawichhuaka as the Secretary, Malsawma as the Joint Secretary, and Lalhmingthanga (Pachhunga's son) as the Treasurer. Raising funds from donations by those who applied for arms license, he inaugurated Aijal College on 15 August 1958 (Indian Independence Day) at Aijal Theatre Hall (now Vanapa Hall).[7]

At the behest of Ingty, Brother Godfrey Danis, who at the time was headmaster of St. Paul's High School, became the first but temporary principal. The faculty were volunteers and originally comprised a team of Christian missionaries including John Meirion Lloyd, Helen Lowry, Gwen Rees Roberts (Pi Teii) and Father O'Brien, along with educated natives such as Rita Neihpuii, Sangliana, and Malsawma. Classes officially started on 1 September 1958.[6] Initially, classes were conducted at the Theatre Hall itself in the afternoon (which they called Evening Class). Towards the end of 1961, the college moved to an abandoned warehouse at Children's Park. For financial support, Ingty would ask for donation from people applying for arms license.[8] Upon the request of the Organising Board, the Welsh Mission Board (Foreign Mission of the Presbyterian Church of Wales) appointed Rev. Alwyn Roberts as the first regular Principal in November 1960.[9] In 1961, the college became government aided, and received affiliation from Gauhati University.[6]

In 1962, the college was renamed Pachhunga Memorial College (PMC) after the death of Pachhunga, as his son, Lalhmingthanga donated INR 10,000 to the college on his father's behalf.[7] It was relocated to its permanent campus in June 1965. On 1 July 1965, the Assam Government declared provincialisation (official recognition), and the name was once more changed to Pachhunga Memorial Government College (PMGC). Permanent teachers were appointed only in 1967 under the Assam Public Service Commission. The University Grants Commission granted full recognition in 1969.

When Lushai Hills became a separate Union Territory as Mizoram from Assam in 1972, the management of the college was handed over to the Government of Mizoram. The college was renamed Pachhunga Government College in 1977. The affiliation was transferred to a newly established North Eastern Hill University (NEHU), on 19 April 1979. NEHU incorporated the college administration to its own and made it its only constituent college with a vision to promote it as a "pace-setting institution." Then it was renamed Pachhunga University College (PUC). With the setting up of Mizoram University on 2 July 2001, the authority was once again signed over to the new university; and remain as such ever since.[6]
