About 15&nbsp;km North-East of Ghatampur is the small town of [Bhitargaon](/source/Bhitargaon), site of a historical temple from the Gupta Period. Ghatampur was part of Kanpur district but was merged with Kanpur Nagar after the district's bifurcation into Kanpur Nagar and Kanpur Rural.{{cn|date=December 2023}}

Earlier, Ghatampur had both a [Vidhan Sabha](/source/Ghatampur_(Assembly_constituency)) and a [Lok Sabha](/source/Lok_Sabha) constituency for the election process. The reshuffling of seats by the [Election Commission of India](/source/Election_Commission_of_India) led to the creation of the new [Akbarpur Lok Sabha constituency](/source/Akbarpur_Lok_Sabha_constituency) in the 2008 General Elections.
