As he was passing Dubrajpur his horses took fright and tilted up the chariot and so some stones fell out. These are the stones at Mama Bhagne.[6] There is another legend to the effect that they were collected by Viswakarma, at the command of Shiva, to erect in one night a second Kasi. When he collected the rocks and was about to commence work, day dawned, so he left.[6] References1. ^http://www.jnnurmwestbengal.gov.in/DIS/MUNI_DLB_Dubrajpur.htm {{Birbhum District}}{{Municipalities of West Bengal}}{{Birbhum topics}}2. ^http://www.citypopulation.de/php/india-westbengal.php?adm2id=1908 3. ^Falling Rain Genomics, Inc - Dubrajpur 4. ^{{cite web|url= http://birbhum.nic.in/birtour2.htm |title= Tourism in Birbhum|work= |publisher=District administration|accessdate= 2012-04-11}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.censusindia.net/results/town.php?stad=A&state5=999|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20040616075334/http://www.censusindia.net/results/town.php?stad=A&state5=999|archivedate=2004-06-16|title= Census of India 2001: Data from the 2001 Census, including cities, villages and towns (Provisional)|accessdate=2008-11-01|publisher= Census Commission of India}} 6. ^1 O’Malley, L.S.S., ICS, Birbhum, Bengal District Gazetteers, pp. 125-128, first published 1910, 1996 reprint, Government of West Bengal 1 : Cities and towns in Birbhum district |
