During the construction of the Mukutmanipur dam, this idol was found while digging the Earth. It is an evidence of Jain religion flourishing in this area. There are many stone idols there & people strongly believe that some of the idols are Jain deities.

However this is developed as a #Hindu temple and revered by locals. Many people come here to celebrate ‘Maha Shivratri’ festival. People do come here to see the mesmerising Sunset.
