Today’s Gotan village was under the rule of the ancient King Gokarna. The word Gotan etymologically means ‘the residence of Gokarna’. The internationally reputed linguist, the revered Professor and one of the brightest stars of the Indian academia, Dr Sukumar Sen, had his ancestral house in Gotan and he spent his early days up to his teens here.

Just 2 kilometers south-east of Gotan is the famous Daminya village, the birthplace of one of the greatest of medieval Bengali poets, Kabi Kankan Mukunda Chakraborty. The birthplaces of the great saint Sri Sri Ramakrishna at Kamarpukur and the Holy Mother Sri Sri Saradamoni at Jayrambati are also not far from Gotan. Raja Rammohan Roy’s birthplace, Radhanagore, is also a stone’s throw distance from Gotan.

Two kilometers north-east of Gotan is Subaldaha village, the birthplace of the founder President of Azaad Hind Fauj, the great freedom fighter, Rashbehari Basu. Today’s Gotan has started seeing the lights of modern development , and one major step towards this development is the establishment of this college, formally named Acharya Sukumar Sen Mahavidyalaya.
