Chennai, May 20 : With an increase in Covid-19 cases followed by deaths, a group of faithfuls in Coimbatore have created a temple dedicated to Corona Devi .
This resembles a similar situation in the early 1900s when the plague was claiming lives and then the faithful dedicated a temple for plague named, Plague Mariamman Temple . This temple was formed and consecrated with an idol after plague was coming year after year in Coimbatore district.
As Covid is also creating havoc across the country with the second pandemic turning more lethal, faithfuls and believers have created a temple at Kamatchipuram near Irugur in the outskirts of Coimbatore city.
