Apasadh village has several statues and one of them , the statue of VARAH AVATAR has been described by Genaral Cunningham as the finest in Bengal. There is big pond in the Apasadh,which is supposed to have been excavated by the wife of Aditya sen .The later Guptas are said to have migrated to Apasadh( Apsand ) . According to the famous stone inscription of Adity sen excavated by Markham in 1850 and noticed by cunningham in 1863 , the genealogy of the later Guptas was as follows Krishna Gupta ,Harsh Gupta ,Jivil Gupta , Kumar Gupta , Damodar Gupta ,Mahasen Gupta , Madhv Gupta and Aditya sen.
This inscription has been lost ,but a true copy of the inscription was reproduced in the Asiatic society journal .from this inscription it is found that AdityaSen built a tample of lord vishnu ,his mother Shrimati founded a religious university , while his wife excavated an extensive pond in Apasadh. The hill at dariyapur parvati ,abaut 3 miles from apasadh , has extensive brik runs of old temples .
Dariyapur parvat _ That this may be site of Hiuen Tsiang s paravat ,or pigeon monastery and if coincidence of name and the occurrence of undoubted Buddhist remain can compensate for its want of coincidence in position with recorded bearings and distance it iscertainly entitled to be considered as the site of the anciant pigeon monastery.The name paravati ghar ,paravat appears to be a crruption of paravat the sanskrit for pigeon .
