The Rajah R.S.R.K. Ranga Rao College, Bobbili is the offspring of the munificence of the philanthropic of Bobbili and vicinity.
The happiest day in the history of Bobbili was 20 th February 1961 when the Shastipoorthi of the royal personality, His Highness Sri Ravu Swethachalapathi Rama Krishna Ranga Rao Bahadur varu, The Rajah of Bobbili was celebrated. To commemorate this momentous event in a grand and befitting manner, the people of Bobbili and around assembled on 6 th February 1961 under the leadership of Sri C.Atchutha Rao Garu. They thought it fit to establish the long needed College of arts and Science in Bobbili in the name of Rajah Saheb to express their gratitude to him for all monumental services rendered by him to the people as a chief Minister of the erstwhile composite Madras State and the ruler of Bobbili. This praiseworthy idea met with an instantaneous response and the approbation from one and all.
