However, our sincere endeavour will never go in vain, like the accomplishment of the devout initiatives of the founder, the founding members, the planners and the architects of the college, in actualising the gigantic task of establishing and bringing up this much needed premiere women's institution in the culture rich millennium city of Cuttack the citadel of Orissa art, culture and education. The College is congenially located on the western fringes of Cuttack City, right on the entry point to Shelter Square which is well connected by regular town bus and auto rickshaw services.
