This lingam is always submerged with water of river Ganga, can only be seen on Pankodhar Ekadasi, before Shivaratri, when the water is removed from the lingam. On that day, thousands of devotees come for a darshan. It is believed that whosoever visit this place, gets rid of all the problems from his life.
