According to temple records, Sri Maha Karumariamman Muneswarar dates back to 1969. It is called Kaka Kovil (Kaka's temple) because the present building was built by a Punjabi whose name is Kakaji. Kakaji is said to have had a vision of a lady dressed in a golden saree, who provided him with instruction that led to founding the present temple. The lady is said to be the Hindu goddess
Amman, and had appeared to Kakaji under her
avatar of Karumariamman.
