Story of the Temple

According to mythological beliefs, the idol of Maa Durga installed in the Durga temple was obtained from
Durgakund. Famous for beliefs and wishes, this temple is crowded with people throughout the year. An annual festival is also held at this kund for about a month in the month of
Shravan.

The recognition of Durga kunds is religious, as well as these kunds are very helpful in preventing water logging due to rain water. The water is being kept clean by putting fish or
turtles in the pools.

There are clear indications from the water reservoirs that ground water from the city area of Varanasi comes into the Ganga, which proves that the groundwater level is higher
than the level of the Ganga.

In ancient times, people used to solve the problems of their drinking water through kunds and wells, but today due to the crisis in their existence, there is a hue and cry in
Kashi for drinking water.

In the present time, the government has paid special attention to the maintenance of this ancient Kund, so that the reverence with which people come to fulfill their
beliefs, they do not have to face any kind of difficulty.
