Historical Notes :-
Sinsini/Originally name of this village was Usrani, the village was populated by Sinsinwar Jats and thus renamed. The Jats Leader Gokul of this village united all local bretheren and put a strong challenge before Mughals primarily Aurangzeb.

Gokula or Gokul Singh (died 1670 AD) was a Jat chieftain of Sinsini . Later, he became a chieftain of Tilpat in Haryana. His father's name was Madu. Madu had four sons namely, Sindhuraj, Ola, Jhaman and Saman. The second son Ola later became famous as Gokula. Gokula provided leadership to the Jat peasants who challenged the Imperial power. Gokula inspired the Jats to fight the Mughals. The first serious outbreak of anti-imperial reaction took place among the Jats of Mathura district of Uttar Pradesh, where the imperial faujdar, Abdun-Nabi, had oppressed them greatly. In 1669 the Jat peasantry rose under a leader, Gokula, zamindar of Tilpat, killed the faujdar, but the freedom of the district could not be maintained for more than a year, and they were suppressed by Hasan Ali Khan, the new faujdar of Mathura aided personally by Mughal tyrant Aurangzeb. Gokula was put to death
