Shri Kumarpalbhai V. Shah inspired Late Shri Hajarimalji Poonamchandji Sanghvi (Bafna) and Shri Babulalji Poonamchandji Sanghvi (Bafna), the founders of K. P. Sanghvi Group, to construct a Tirth Dham. They started construction and development of the campus on 30 May 1998, Saturday (Jeth Shukla 15, 2054 V. S.). The initial thought was to construct a small temple and a shelter for 100 cows only but the campus is now spread over more than {{convert|500|acre|km2}} of land. The temple complex occupies {{convert|3101472|sqft|m2|abbr=on}} area and the Jeev Raksha Kendra (Animal Welfare Center) occupies {{convert|7196112|sqft|m2|abbr=on}}. | Shri Kumarpalbhai V.
