Baruni Devi, a child widow of the Malighat village contributed much to the establishment of the present DCH College. Staying in a house near the Hogla railway station, remaining childless all her life, she became instrumental in bringing the light of education to the eager students of her time. A humanitarian to the core, she also contributed a lot to the setting-up of the "Padmer Haat" hospital, as well as, bringing up a few orphan children and brought them into the main stream of the society. The college will remain indebted to this great lady forever.
Baruni Chatrabas, college hostel of Dhruba Chand Halder college has provision for accommodating about 150 students. The hostel building is old. Efforts are being made for renovation of the existing buildings and construction of new buildings for students accommodation.
