Chinsurah-Mogra community development block, Administrative community block in Chinsurah Sadar subdivision, India.

The Chinsurah-Mogra block extends across the fertile Hooghly-Damodar Plain at an elevation of 16 meters above sea level in West Bengal.

The region transformed from a Portuguese settlement named Ugulim in 1579 to become an important administrative center in the Hooghly district.

The population celebrates major Bengali festivals throughout the year, including Durga Puja and Jagadhatri Puja, which gather thousands of participants.

The community development block maintains regular public services and infrastructure projects while connecting to urban centers through an extensive road network.

The area contains the oldest Armenian church in India and serves as a central point for agricultural production in the Gangetic Delta region.
