Profil
Founded in 1919 by Pusapati Vijayarama Gajapathi Raju, Maharajah of Vizianagram. It was named "Sri Vijayarama Gana Pathasala"
Chaganti Jogarao is a friend of Vijayarama Gajapati Raju. He has a son, Chaganti Gangaraju, who is blind and loves music. He urges the Maharaja to help him. He donated the Town Hall building behind the castle for the purpose and thus the music school began. Adibhatla Narayana Dasu was elected as headmaster and Dwaram Venkataswamy Naidu as professor. After him, the institution was promoted as "Sri Vijayarama Music and Dance College" by Sri Alak Narayana Gajapati Raju and established more sections. The Andhra Pradesh government took over its management on August 15, 1955. It is under the affiliation of Potti Sreeramulu Telugu University, Hyderabad. Then Maharajah P. V. G. Raju promoted it further.
