From the olden days, this place has been known as a center of culture & religion, which has maintained its glory even toady.

The idol of Gayatrimata in the form of Ved Mata & Vishwamata was founded by the sacred hands of Yug Rishi Taponisht Pt Shriram Sharma himself. At that time the saga of vision, Yug Rishi Pujya Gurudev, had assured and blessed Banshidharji by saying that: Banshidhar, your horse will run fast." From that date this center is leading toward progress and trying to eradicate additictions and the evil customs from the society.With the sacred signatures of Param Pujya gurudev, the constitution, aims and the names of the trustees of the Shaktipeeth, were registered on 22-9-80.
