According to Mirza Kalich Beg, Ghotki was found by Pir Mohsin Shah during 1447 and had also constructed a glorious mosque. He has written that the previous name of Ghotki was لوہے صاحبان.

The district of Ghotki is facing a serious law and order issue with numerous incidents of daily kidnappings, murders, and robberies. The challenging aspect of the problem is that these incidents are occurring in remote "Kacha areas" (Riverine areas) with difficult to access routes. The cabinet approved the proposal for the procurement of military grade weapons and surveillance systems worth Rs2.79 billion to combat kidnapping and attacks on police forces in the riverine areas of Ghotki, Shikarpur, and Sukkur districts. The Home department was directed to seek an NOC from the Ministry of Interior for the purchase. The Sindh police planned to procure drone technology to use the unmanned aerial vehicles not only for surveillance but also for targeting bandits in riverine areas of the province. Outlaws found safe havens in the difficult terrain of four hard to reach districts Ghotki, Sukkur, Shikarpur, and Kashmore. Drones were previously used by the army during Zarb i Azab, but now law enforcement agencies use them extensively in counter terrorism and to combat urban terrorism. This marks a major shift in operational techniques used by law enforcement agencies, including the Counter Terrorism Department.
