THE GODDESS WHO HAS PERIODS

Just after the completion of the ceremonies Pillai he came on the scene. He was perturbed by what he saw. Since the function took place at the wrong time, he said that it would spell ruin to the temple. Right enough, in a few months a disastrous fire gutted the eastern gopuram, Kuttambalam and a major portion of the mandapam and several parts on the eastern side of nalambalam.

Unfinished Kuttambalam

The Present structure is the one renovated after the fire, As a precaution against future fires stone masonry was adopted for the renovated temple. The progress of ren0vation work was extremely slow. After constructing the srikoil, nalambalam and mandapam the work was in suspension for several years. In 1812, Resident-D 61. Munro, as mentioned earlier, took over Chengannur under Governmental control along with other tern The renovation was however completed later under the Diwanship of Shri Rajagopalachari.
