The Maa Ugratara Temple, nearly 1000 years old, is located in Nagar village, Chandwa block, Latahar district. Known as a Siddhpeeth, it attracts devotees from across India. It is believed that flowers falling from the deity's seat during worship signal fulfilled wishes. The temple was established by ancestors of the last king of Tori Pargana, Digvijay Nath Shahi, after a divine dream and discovery of a thumb-shaped idol.
