A medieval, primeval temple situated at Jamdara village in Gohad tehsil near Mau, 45 km from Bhind, was thought to have been built by sage Parashuram.
Myths related to Parashuram is that his father, Maharshi Jamdagini had ordered to cut-off the head of Mother Renuka, to which he complied with. But, as a prize to Parashuram`s feat, he asked from his father the restoration of the dead mother. The temple was built in this very place of activity. The chief deity, Mata Renuka, therefore has a beheaded statue of herself.
