Vishnu Durgai at Sarkar Kannadiputhur, near Kozhumam, Udumalpet, Tiruppur District, Tamil Nadu.

6th December 2018.
After the visit to Sholamadevi Shiva Temple, had went to this Vishnu Durgai temple near the banks of river Amaravathi. A small temple in which Vishnu Durgai is installed in the open sky. The Vishnu Durgai measuring about 7 feet high is in standing posture on a buffalo head ( demon Mahisha ). The Vishnu Durgai is in the form of bas-relief. Out of 4 hands, the upper hand holds Shankha and Chakra the lower right hand is hanging and the left hand is on the hip/ thigh. Vishnu Durgai wears a half dress below the waist and ornaments on the neck and ears. Bangles are also seen in the hands. This Vishnu Durgai is under worship.

Even though it was claimed that this Vishnu Durgai belongs to the 10th Century, experts believe that this may belong to the 13th Century.
