The other temple structure is called Dasvisa.<br /> <br /> Daan Ghati is a temple where the [[deity]] is in the form of a rock and that rock was lifted by lord Krishna on their little finger for 7 days. The deity is said to be going down in earth by a few millimeters every year. Local people who have been witnessing this confirm this, though there is no scientific proof for the same.<br /> <br /> Over time, this temple has slowly taken over the place of main shrine of the town. Also, there has been much commercialization of the temple structure. With ever-growing touristic importance of the place, the commercial interests are growing and at times conflicts as well.<br /> <br /> The temple reform was started by a Daan-Ghati management committee, established in the 1970s by [[Shri Gopal Prasad Kaushik]], one of the prominent citizens of the town. Passing through times, the committee was headed by different people at different times. Lobbying and factionalism were also common-place.
