They wanted to provide an atmosphere free from financial worries by providing free boarding, free lodging and free coaching. Their dream materialized and took shape in the form of Silver Jubilee Government College, a residential degree college, located in Kurnool, the first capital of Andhra Pradesh. The students were admitted from all the three regions of the state, coastal Andhra, Telangana and Rayalaseema in the ratio of 42:36:22, on merit basis through a state wide entrance test .
