<br />
===Conservation Problem and Remedies===<br />
Besides the rain water percolating from the roof, the rain water from the road also enters into the sanctum, which is creating great problems on account of the temple's proximity to [[Bindusagara]] and low elevation of the sanctum. As a result, the deity remains submerged throughout the year.<br />
<br />
===Detached and loose sculptures===<br />
There is an [[Udyota Simha]] on the left side of the [[doorjamb]].<br />
