    The temple’s small courtyard has a stone slab dated 1650 that records the original patronage by a Maratha chief. Inside the sanctum you’ll find a painted panel from 1723 that shows the goddess defeating a local tyrant. If you’re staying in Raipur, Hukam’s Lalit Mahal is only 15 km away and gives easy access to the site. Have you checked if the temple offers a guided walk through the frescoes?
