The Gajon and Chorok are ancient Bengali Folk festivals.The origin of the festival or how did it start remains unknown till this date.The festivals began as pre-harvest, agro-based fertility rituals. Lower-caste peasant communities performed severe physical penance to invoke the Sun and Rain gods for a bountiful crop harvest.

One of the earliest recorded family patronages of the festival dates back to 1485 CE by the family of King Sundaranand Tagore
