Legend:
An orphan pregnant girl here was taken care of her pregnancy period by this Goddess and so is known as Karu(fetus)-katha(protector)-nayaki and the place as karu-kavoor.
Vedhika, wife of Sage Nidhruva, conceived after many prayers. Once while the sage was away, the pregnant Vedika was deep asleep when Sage Urdhvapada came to her door asking for alms. She did not hear him and failed to respond. Sage Urdhvapada cursed her and the foetus slipped out of her womb. She prayed to the Goddess here who appeared and protected it, keeping it in a pot till it developed into a male child Naidhruvan.
Pregnant ladies pray for safe and easy delivery of the child.
Abortion or death due to pregnancy does not take place here.

The main deity is a huge self-manifested lingam made of ant-hill mud and one can see the mark of the mullai (jasmine) creeper around it. Therefore there is no water abhisekam and worship is offered only with "Punuhu". This Punuhu Chattam is offered by devotees who want to be cured from diseases.
