Jhadeswar Temple, Jharsuguda

Jhadeswar temple is located at a distance of about 1 km. from the Jharsuguda,Odisha Railway station beyond the oldtown Purunabasti inside a small jungle. There is a self appearing Sivalingam here the actual age of which is unknown. But during the reign of Govind Singh Jamindar of Jharsuguda the lingam was being worshiped inside a hut made up of leaves. In 1916 a Gujarati contractor named Mulju Jagmal erected a small temple here. The Jamindar of Jharsuguda arranged Savayats for daily worship and donated farming lands for maintenance of the temple.tur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident
