The Kangsha, Someshwari, Netai, Khariya, Mahisakhali have untapped. In rivers Someshwari very clear water in winter, look at the underside of the water in the water can be seen distinctly through the sand beneath. But the rainy season water is real muddy. 'Mohashoul' one of the delicious fish found in the river. The 'Lachu'  fish particularly significant.

There was a palace from Yore in Susang Parganas. Susang Durgapur is located about hundred eighty two km from Dhaka, thirty-six miles north-east from greater Mymensingh district headquarters and twenty five miles north of the present Netrakona district. The Maharaja's palace was built along the east bank of the river Someshwari. Many local people think that where the palace was built, 'Durgapur'(দুর্গাপুর) name is retained according to 'Adhisthaei Goddess' of Dasubari. If the name of `Durgapur' (দুর্গাপুর) is kept according to 'Adhisthaei Goddess' of dasubari, then why the spelling of Durgapur (দুর্গাপুর) with ‘ু’ instead of ‘‍ূ’? All recorded in the ancient documents of  land of the landlords - Durgapur (দুর্গাপুর) spelled with with ‘ু' instead of ‘‍ূ'. Even (দুর্গাপুর) spelled with ‘ু' instead of ‘‍ূ' in the book `Barendra Brahman Zamidars of Mymensingh, second volume'. No local one can articulate the mystery why Durgapur (দুর্গাপুর) spelled like that! So it seems 'Durgapur' (দুর্গাপুর) spelling with ‘ু' to be prudent and should be traced as it had written in all citations. The local name in ancient times was not very `Durgapur'. It was the western portion of the village `Langura' or `Lengura',  Lengura village still exists in east part of Durgapur village.

Ancient 'Susang palace' was surrounded by walls. There were soldiers quarters, chambers, jail, Arsenal and gods with temples in Moated palace. Those Dev Temple had all the evidence of religious landlords. In the Bengali year 1304, the palace, temples and every pre-pride symbol has vanished forever by an earthquake. Foreign military personnel were to be landed there in the past for the protection of buildings. If there is Battle at the border local Garo, Hajong and different community would do to serve. At present there is no sign of the palace.
