	~~To reach~~ Nagoba ~~Jatara from Adilabad district center distance~~ is ~~of 32 km~~.		Mesram clan members used to worship only the holy place (putta) where the Goddess Nagoba is believed to have appeared long ago. In 1956, a small hut was built with thatched roofs, and in 1995, a small temple was built with cement and bricks. The temple was built in 2000 with the help of the government. A new temple was constructed out of stone in 2022.
