HIGHLIGHTS
It is told that this devata reached the village of Jaon from the area of Rampur Bushahar passing through many villages. Jaon at that time was inhabited by the people known as ‘maanh-marechh’. Saraajpal displaced them all and he himself started living at a place near Nehri Gaad (Dark stream). There is an ancient temple here. Later on the villagers of Naali village brought the devta to their own village and built a temple for him. The devta has twelve mohras.
