Shree Velagapudi Ramakrishna Memorial College (SVRMC), Nagaram was established in August 21, 1969. Basically a Government Aided College (Autonomous) Sponsored by R.T.E.I. Society.

It is one of the prestigious college affiliated to Acharya Nagarjuna University, Guntur and accredited by NAAC with 'A' Grade.

In the memory of the great man and his ideals, it was named Sri Velagapudi Ramakrishna Memorial College. Thus an ideal institution with the loftiest objective of dispelling darkness from society and to prevent any further erosion of values and virtues from all walks of life came into existence. 

The impulse behind it is the great principle that every human being has an inalienable right to develop the full faculties of his personality through education.

Motto:

"Tamasoma Jyothirgamaya" which means that tha radiant light of knowledge spread every where, expeis darkness of ignorance from the world.

The future of an institution is evident from the founders and architects of that institution. The ideals of them sanction a bright future.

The college founder Secretary and Correspondent Sri N.V.Krishna Rao believed that only men of character and competence could promote excellence in what ever they did. He did not interfere and did not allow others to interfere with the selection process in the matter of appointment of College staff and left it entirely to the interviewing committee composed of expert.

Most outstanding objectives that emerged in by-laws of the society are as follows:
