Maa Markama Temple in a new look at Bissam Cuttack
Maa Markama Temple located at Bissam Cuttack village of Rayagada district is a place of tourist interest.[1] It is the only shrine (Shakti Peethas) of Devi Maa Markama and Maa karkama in the Indian state of Odisha. The temple of Maa Karkama (believed to be the sister of Maa Markama) is situated next to the temple of Maa Markama. The legend says that the Devi is being worshiped for centuries. However, the temple was constructed in the recent past.
A junior college and a university college[2] in Bissam Cuttack are named after Maa Markama. The temple is one of the places of tourist attractions in the Rayagada district.[3][4][5][6] Dussehra and chaitra Paraba are celebrated every year at the temple. The nearest railhead is Chatikona, which is 7 km (4.34 miles) from Bissam Cuttack.
