== History ==&lt;br /&gt;
It is said about Maa Rankini temple that Goddess Rankini is seated in a stone and is still awake today. Rankini Temple was established during 1947-50, at present, the place where the mother is worshipped has been established. Mata Rankini used to reside in the Kapadgadi valley situated next to the drain passing below the main temple. Mother was in the form of a stone in a bond. It is said that Goddess Rankini came in a dream to a person named Dinbandhu Singh and told about herself being in the form of a stone. The Goddess also told in his dream that she needs worship and he would worship her. From that day onwards, Dinbandhu Singh started worshipping in that rock with vermilion and a colored cloth. A few years after that, the mother gave a divine dream to Dinbandhu and asked him to establish a place where the general public could also reach and worship Mata Rankini.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=मां रंकिणी का पाषाण और जागृत रूप, जानिए मां की महिमा |url=https://www.etvbharat.com/hindi/jharkhand/state/east-singhbhum/importance-of-mata-rankani-temple-in-jamshedpur/jh20201024054741151 |access-date=2022-05-19 |website=ETV Bharat News}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Maji |first=Bivu |date=2022-05-31 |title=Rankini Devi Temple {{!}} Jadugora |url=https://welcometojamshedpur.in/rankini-mandir/ |access-date=2022-05-19 |website=Welcome to Jamshedpur |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Goddess in the form of Sheela ===&lt;br /&gt;
Following the orders of the mother, Dinbandhu established a Sheela (stone) as the murthi (idol) of the Goddess where temple of Maa Rankini is located. After Dinbandhu, his son ManSingh and after ManSingh, his son Baidyanath Singh, with his family and the trust they created are running the temple. It is said that the size of the stone which is worshipped as Mother is increasing year after year. This stone is called a &amp;#039;&amp;#039;living&amp;#039;&amp;#039; stone.

== Story ==&lt;br /&gt;
Goddess Rankini used to live in the forests in the Kapadgadi Valley. One day a shepherd, seeing a girl walking alone in the forest, started asking about her. But the girl did not answer. To escape from the shepherd, she reached Kapadgadi Ghat, where a washer-man was washing clothes. She went inside his cloth bag and hid. After a while, when the shepherd could not find the girl, he returned to the forest. In the meantime, the pile of clothes in which the Goddess was hiding had turned into stone.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Maji |first=Bivu |date=2022-05-31 |title=Rankini Devi Temple {{!}} Jadugora |url=https://welcometojamshedpur.in/rankini-mandir/ |access-date=2022-05-19 |website=Welcome to Jamshedpur |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

== Temple ==&lt;br /&gt;
The Goddess worshipped in the temple is believed to be a physical incarnation of [[Goddess Kali]]. The ancient temple is said to have formerly existed on a rock. According to the legends, the temple had witnessed the [[human sacrifice]]s (&amp;#039;&amp;#039;narabali)&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in the past, until about 1865, when this was eventually stopped by the [[British Empire|British]]. The belief amongst the tribes was that the Goddess herself killed the victims. The stone deity was originally worshipped by the local [[Bhumij people|Bhumij]] tribes. Later, through the passage of time this worship transformed into worship of the [[Hindus|Hindu]] [[Durga|Goddess Durga]], probably when the Kings of [[Dhalbhumgarh]] took over. Dhalbhum was first written about when the British Army attacked the [[Dhalbhum]] and [[Ghatsila]] region in 1767 jointly with Raja of [[Midnapore]], after a previous abortive attempt in 1765.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Maji |first=Bivu |date=2022-05-31 |title=Rankini Devi Temple {{!}} Jadugora |url=https://welcometojamshedpur.in/rankini-mandir/ |access-date=2022-05-19 |website=Welcome to Jamshedpur |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The famous Bengali writer [[Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay]] (1894-1950) has mentioned Rankini Devi in his [[Bengali language|Bengali]] story named &amp;quot;Rankini Debir Khadga&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The current temple that stands is about 70 years old, built around 1950. The trust managing the temple was formed in 1954. The main temple is flanked by a temple dedicated to [[Lord Ganesha]] and a temple dedicated to [[Lord Shiva]], on each side.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Maji |first=Bivu |date=2022-05-31 |title=Rankini Devi Temple {{!}} Jadugora |url=https://welcometojamshedpur.in/rankini-mandir/ |access-date=2022-05-19 |website=Welcome to Jamshedpur |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
