Origins
Goddess Dwarbasini is a stone idol with no image. She is a form of Durga with Laxmi, Saraswati, Kartik, and Ganesha. A Dwarbasini temple is situated on the bank of Dwarka River.[4] This temple was built during the 1990s. Before this temple was made, Dwarbasini was covered with a bamboo umbrella, made by Santhals.[5]
