History of the temple –
The principal deity of Lord Mahavira in India is established in this temple which was originally found on a mound where it miraculously appeared. The local villagers excavated the idol only because they noticed a cow (Kaamduhadhenu) pouring his milk on the mount every day. When the villagers became curious about it, they excavated the mound and were surprised at the appearance of the idol of Lord Mahavira. Then people started offering prayers to this deity, and a temple was constructed for the idol of Shri Amar Chand Bilala of Jaipur.
