About

A statue of The Great Ancestor is located at the village entrance in front of the temple. The statue was also known as Dadosa or data (grandfather) in the Rajput community. One of the Ancestors (dadosa or grandfather) apparently killed a pandit or priest, who was riding on a horse in front of the Sadalwa gate, with a "talwar" (sword), because in Rajput culture it is considered that no person other than Rajput can move in front of the Rajput houses.
