This is approximately 80 years old Lord Hanuman's Temple.
According to history in British rule the place was used as a ware house and station where trains
used to come to load Salt. There were workers to load the salt in train. Some workers got dreams
of Lord Hanuman continuously three times telling that there is a mystical stone under the ground
at the place where that stone is worshiped today. The workers dug the place and found it and
all of them urged to the administrative staff to build a temple of Shree Hanuman. But at the first the
British staff was not agreed. So to get it built the workers went on strike and fast till death.
British police tried to break the strike by Lathi charge but it failed. And after some period the workers got
permission to build the Temple and the original temple is still there.....
!!!!!Jay Shree Ram, Jay Hanumaan!!!!!!!!!!
