Goghat II community development block

Goghat II is an administrative area in West Bengal spanning fertile agricultural land and managed through nine village councils known as gram panchayats. The main administrative center is located in Kamarpukur, serving as the hub for essential services to multiple villages in this zone.

The ruins of an Afghan fort at Garh Mandaran are found here, gaining literary recognition in Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay's novel Durgeshnandini. This structure reflects the region's diverse past and its importance in Bengal's cultural memory.

Bengali is the language spoken by most people living here, while Santali is used in certain communities within the block. This linguistic diversity shapes daily life and the local identity across the region.

Administrative services are accessed through the nine village councils, which serve as the first point of contact for local matters. Visitors should use Kamarpukur as the reference point to reach official services or obtain information.

The Satberia Chandramoni Eco Tourism Park was developed on formerly barren land and features traditional huts alongside community spaces. This green space demonstrates local efforts to create new areas for both visitors and residents to gather.
