In order to celebrate the victory, the Boyas constructed the Gangamma temple, and worshiping her since several centuries.

IMPORTANCE
Gangamma also called as Gangaiamman is a divine mother, who will used to answer our urgent calls, and appear before us immediately. She expects only the pure bhakti from us and nothing more else. Even there is no need to tell our problems to her, since she is having the power to study our mind, and finds out the problems, and gives proper solutions for that. Even if we contribute a little amount for performing a puja for her, that will be sufficient for her, and gives all the propensities in our life. By doing charity to the poor, she will be very much pleased with us and offer various boons to us.
