Initially, the college did not have its premises. From 2012 to 2018, Government Arts and Commerce College was run in Gadhada's historic M.M. high school premises. The academic work of the college took place in the high school premises for five and a half years. Meanwhile, the process of acquiring the land for the college and then its construction was completed. The college was inaugurated by Chief Minister Mrs. Anandiben Patel. During the in charge/Acting Principal Prof. Bhavin Badiyani's tenure, the college got its state-of-the-art building and in 2018, the Government Arts and Commerce College started functioning in its independent building under the name Bhaktraj Dada Khachar Arts and Commerce College.

A grand inauguration ceremony of the college was held. The college was inaugurated at the hands of the Education Minister Shri Bhupendrasinhji Chudasma in the presence of a large group of the local public. Respecting the public sentiment, the name of Gnanpipasu/ knowledge seeker Dada Khachar and a unique devotee of Lord Sahajananda Swami, was associated with the name of the college in the inauguration ceremony. Thus, in the new building of the college, the work of education of the students started in the benchless classes. Gradually, teachers were appointed by the Gujarat Public Service Commission in both the arts and commerce branches, a rich library was prepared and the institution began to grow as a thriving center of learning. Then, benches and other basic facilities became available in the college during the tenure of the Acting/ in charge Principal Dr. Janakkumar Gadhvi. The institution is doing great work in the fields of education, literature, art, sports, and service. The 'National Service Scheme (NSS) unit in the organization is also active for the public service.

Dr. Tejas Gandhi, assistant professor (Commerce) from our college was one among the 35 professors as representative of the college. Prime Minister, Shri Narendrabhai Modi paid a special visit to the professors after they visited England.
