The station was named after the youngest revolutionary Khudiram Bose who was caught by two armed constables. He reached the station after covering 25 km (16 mi) distance walking barefoot after bombing the carriage of Kingsford. The bomb hit its target successfully and the carriage blew up. However, the carriage was occupied not by Kingsford but instead by the wife and daughter of barrister Pringle Kennedy, a leading pleader of Muzaffarpur Bar.
