It is known from the elders people that the then British government had entrusted the governance of the village chairman (Gram panchayat) of this union to the late Dr. Abdul Karim Chowdhury of Khirsin village of Ghoshnagar union no. 9 The necessary papers were burned. Upon learning of this the senior official transferred the power of village chairman (Gram Panchayat) to Mr. Azgar Ali Mandal of Gaganpur village in writing on 24 January 1935 through discussions with eminent persons of this union. The activities of this office have continued in his meeting room (Gaganpur Mondolpara) ever since. When there is a need for an office room according to the needs of different people in the union, people from different villages have different opinions about having that office in their own village. In order to resolve this disagreement, the surveyor determined the middle of the union by measuring it by consulting the mahat-matabbars of various villages. The middle of the union is determined between Jamgram and Kotali mouzas. Since there is a paddy field there, a mud house with 06 rooms was built in Jamgram mouzas named Gaganpur Bazar, 7 or 8 hundred yards away from there. Work continues till this office. Due to the increase in various activities of this office, space constraints occur. Quote to solve this problem.
