From 13th century A.D, Muslim rulers took possession of Saptagram and extended their region upto Damodar during the middle of 16th century Bengal. Sultan Sulaiman Kararui conquered part of Howrah, grouped it into Sarkars and named after himself Sulaimanabad. The district appears to have been distributed between three Sarkars -Saptagram (now in Hooghly), Mandaran (now in Hooghly) and Sulaimanabad. Ghoshpara was then a part of Sulaimanabad.[2]. It is popular belief that an Ancient Persian Emperor named Parvez used to come to this remote village for fishing.
