Previously Kankalitala known as Kanchi desh. As per trantrachuramani Kanchi desh is 28th sakti pith we found skeleton of the mother Sati in this place. Another version as per annadamangal by Bharat Chandra the waist (or kakal in Bengali) of Parvati fell in the Kankalitala. According to the history the waist has been placed under the pond by Lord Shiva. The holy pond (KUNDO PUKUR) is just behind the Temple. 5 shiba lingas are also retained there. On a special / auspicious day, those shiba lingas are taken out from there to shiba temple.

There isn’t any idol, instead of that there is a framed picture of Ma Kali use to be worshiped. The part of sati’s body is situated under the water of the nearby holy pond (KUNDO PUKUR). Bhoriv is also present in the name of Ruru.
