While the temple is believed to be in existence for over 1500 years, the idol was installed by the sage Madhvacharya in the 13th century. He is the founder of the Dvaita philosophy, This is the main attraction in Udupi. The main temple itself is constructed in the architectural style typical in Kerala and Dakshina Kannada.

    Dharavi suffers from a low quality of life and is unable to meet many of its citizens needs. The area lacks privacy as well as sanitation and houses are usually composed of mud and logs. Many factors cause this low quality of life, but the main cause is found in history.
