The Islands of Andaman & Nicobar are geographically remote because of the vast distance from the mainland coastal line of India. It is the first degree college in the Union Territory of the Andaman & Nicobar Islands, which marked the beginning of higher education in this region. In 1987, the college's affiliation changed from Punjab University to Pondicherry University.
