The idol was not insulted under the rule of Islam, so the idol was installed on the hill outside the village, and in 1790 Sardar Ganpat Rao Patwardhan Dixit built this present temple. It was called 'Math of the Goddess' and two storeys have been built above the temple. The Kalash was not installed on the temple due to the fear of the destruction of the Yavanas. This does not have a peak on it. The extremely attractive statue of Maa Bhadrakali, made of punch metal, is about 38 centimeters (15 inches) high and has a variety of armaments in its 18 arms.Jansthan Shakti Peeth Mythology
Jansthan Shakti Peeth is one of the 51 Shakti peeths. According to religious texts, parts of Goddess Sati fell at all these places. According to the legend, a yajna was organized by King Daksha, father-in-law of Lord Shiva, during which King Daksha didn't send invitations to Lord Shiva and Mother Sati as a result of King Daksha didn't consider Lord Shiva as his equal. There was a variety of insult to Lord Shiva on the place of sacrifice, which Mata Sati could not bear and she fell into the Havan Kund there.Lord Shankar came to find out about this, after which he reached there and took out the body of Mata Sati from Havan Kund and began doing Tandava, which caused upheaval in the entire universe. To save the entire universe from this crisis, Lord Vishnu divided the body of Mata Sati into 51 parts from his Sudarshan Chakra, the limb where it fell became the Shakti peeth.
