Paramvir Albert Ekka Memorial College, Chainpur epitomizes long cherished dreams of the founder visionaries of the college, To familiarize ourselves with aims and objectives of the founders, we can go through a brief review of the historical background against which college emerged as higher educational institution.
The 1st two decades of the post-independence era observed a remarkable upheaval in social awareness among aboriginal tribes inhabiting the landscape. The reason behind it was the dynamic surging spirit of Indian national freedom. In turn, it triggered multiple offshoots of growth in diverse social scenarios. Among many other silver lines drawn political independence led to amazing growth in literacy among the poor and backward indigenous populace. It is hard to believe how the light of literacy once ignited spread by leaps and bounds in a short two-decade period of time between the 1950s and the 1960s. With social welfare measures adopted by the Indian Government and active co-operation of the people made it happened that in no time a number of primary schools, middle schools, and high schools were opened in every nook and corner, even in the most interior places. It was so far, so good. But then, in the meantime, a vicious chasm was lurking behind brilliant progress. A large number of high school pass out students were being deprived of the opportunity to join higher education. First, there was not a single higher educational institution available within a radius of 50 km. Second, one of the main reasons was the crushing economic poverty pervasive in the rural and interior areas. So, the main challenge before them was how to make higher education accessible at an affordable price. Fortunately, as it usually happens, a group of benevolent, philanthropic, learned, and like-minded men and women joined together and came forward to resolve the problem. On one hand, though the challenge was gigantic, on the other hand, their courage too was colossal. They took every pain and left no stone unturned in making their dreams come true. Eventually, the Paramvir Albert Ekka Memorial College was established in 1975.
Paramvir Albert Ekka Memorial College saw its humble beginning at Barway High School, Chainpur, in 1975. To begin with, there were only 26 students, 06 teachers, and Rev. Fr. Cyprian Ekka as the founder principal. During the following year, the college campus was shifted from Barway High School to its present location near Chhatarpur village, a hillock named Karamtongri. It is situated 1 km off the main road in the southwest direction at longitude 84 degrees 24″ 40′ and latitude 23 degrees 11″ 19.
This college is named “Paramvir Albert Ekka Memorial College” after the name of Lance Naik Albert Ekka. Lance Naik Albert Ekka hailed from the village Jari, block Jari, 10 km South of block Chainpur in the district of Gumla. He laid his life as a sacrifice on the altar of patriotism for the nation of India in the Indo-Pak war of 1971. The learned ladies and gentlemen should have gratefully wished to keep his name to pay homage and commemorate his martyrdom.
