Dargah Rest Room Over Punyeswar Narayana Temple Pune

A Marathi manuscript titled Pune peth kaifiyat, found in an archive in the Government Oriental Manuscripts Library in Chennai, tells the peculiar tale of the dargahs. The manuscript begins with the story of rishi Purna, who meditated in this region. Arguably, the city was named after him. The kaifiyat describes the building of the temples of Puneshwar and Narayaneshwar on the Mutha river bank in the period of the Yadava rule from 9th to 13th centuries.
