Balmukund Agrawal, the head of the temple, says that the remains of this 400-year-old temple in Sita Bagicha of Arang are witnesses of antiquity. Once upon a time, sages and saints used to come to this place and perform Tantra-Mantra in the temple. This place was the central point for attaining Siddhi.
