It is a pilgrimage centre for the believers of Lord Shiva and is frequented by pilgrims to make a dip in holy water

It is believed by local priests that Sage Gautama cursed the king Indra. He placed a Shivalingam in order to wash off his sins and relieved himself from the curse. Moreover, he anointed the Shivalingam with water of around 1 crore rivers.
