Unfortunately its glory started
waning after the death of Prataparudra II. It was in 1950 a philanthropist by
name Mangalal Somaj made renovations and brought it under flood light of
eminence.
The
temple having enjoyed munificent patronage of a long line of illustrious rulers
is architecturally and sculpturally grand and majestic in appearance. The
archamurti is ashtabhuja Bhadrakali holding many potent weapons of war in her
hands. Its immensity of size measuring nine feet in height and four feet in
width is quite awe-some and imposing She strikes terror in the minds of wicked
and fills the souls of the righteous with benignty unparalleled. And a
Pratyaksha daivam of ardent believers at it. Daily and periodical worship is
carried on with great spiritual zeal-and they are drawing devout bhaktas round
the year.
The
temple can be reached by bus or train up to Warangal and
from there b four wheelers.
