History
The legend has it that the people from Mandi district carried the idol of Jalpa Devi to place it in their region. While they were heading back to Mandi with the statue; they turned blind and when they started to return back to the place where the idol was first placed, their vision returned. Thus, the people were compelled to place the idol of the goddess back where it was.
