When the Zamindars (kings) arrived from Natore, an inhabitant of the town, Muktaram Karmakar, presented them with a gold lamp-stand, locally called Gacha.

They wanted to acknowledge the present and show respect to Muktaram, so they renamed the town to Muktagacha.

Muktagacha has a literacy rate (age 7 and over) of 43.5%, compared to the national average of 51.8%, and a sex ratio of 1011 females per 1000 males.
