Legend / Local stories
As per the legends, Lord Brahma was supposed to perform yagna with his wife Goddess Saraswati. But since Goddess Saraswati was late for the event, he married Goddess Gayatri and completed the ritual. This turn of events infuriated Goddess Saraswati, who cursed that no married man will be allowed to enter the inner sanctum; or else, trouble shall arise in his marital life.
