Rani Rasamani and Dakshineswar Temple are located in the Jatavadya complex.
The history of Rani Rashmoni's establishment of the Dakshineswar temple, a perversion of Hinduism's ancient Varnashrama religion, "casteism," is a vivid testimony to how dangerous caste discrimination had become It is coming up in discussion The time is 1847 Rani Rashmoni of Janbazar, Kolkata (1793-1996 AD), is visiting Kashi Vishwanath with twenty-five boats, accompanied by relatives, maids and doctors.
Six months of provisions are taken with her Four cows are taken for milk along with the people and a boat full of straw for their food.

The fleet sailed up the Bhagirathi to Dakshineswar and decided to spend the night there when the river current became hostile It is said that Rani Rashmani had a dream in the night that Vishweshwar of Kashi told her that she need not go to Kashi and also ordered her to build a temple on the bank of the Bhagirathi and establish her.
The next morning, he called his sons-in-law and informed them to postpone their journey to Kashi All the provisions brought with him were distributed among the poor people of the area in the name of Maa Kali Then, returning to his home in Janbazar, Kolkata, he asked his son-in-law Mathuramohan to look for a suitable land for the construction of the temple.

"West of the Ganges is equivalent to Kul / Varanasi." So, the land was searched in the west of the Ganges.
Let the search for land continue We go back to the origin of the proverb "West of the Ganges / Equivalent to Varanasi " Apparently, there is Brahmanism behind this The Brahmin sage Vyasadeva was driven out of the West of the Ganges by the Brahmins Then Vyasadeva built his monastery on the east bank of the Ganges in Kashi.
Then, the group of admirers, impressed by Vyasadeva's erudition, thronged his monastery on the east bank of the Ganges On the other hand, the population on the west bank dwindled and the employment of Brahmanical businessmen declined For this reason, the intellectual Brahmin scholars propagated that the East of the Ganges is unclean and the West of the Ganges is a place of pilgrimage.
Thus the above proverb was created as per plan.

Thus the above proverb was created as per plan.
From Kashi, they returned to Dakshineswar It appears that the western bank of the Ganges was then under the control of Brahmin zamindars They were not willing to allow a Kaivarta clan widow like Rani Rashmoni to gain virtue by establishing a temple So they left the western bank and went in search of land in the eastern bank of the Ganges.
But there too, the nobles were not able to find land in the hands of Sarvaswasva Brahmins Even the common people of Bhatpara, Barrackpore, were not willing to give land to Rani Rashmoni.
A search was made Finally, the land was found to be owned by a Christian, not a Hindu The name of the Sahib was Hasty The Sahib had a cottage on the land The Sahib then planned to set up a jute mill there and went to buy the machinery for it.
He died on the way The power of attorney for the land was given to Supreme Court attorney James Hosty The land and some surrounding lands were purchased for sixty-five thousand rupees on 6 September 1947 The Brahmins could not resist buying the land as the owner was a Christian.

After purchasing the land, the then famous construction company "Mackintosh and Burn Company" was given the contract to build the temple But when the construction of the temple started, the so-called Hindus came forward to stop it Ramratan Roy, the zamindar of Narail, alone filed sixteen cases against Rani Rashmoni.
The reasons for the cases were also strange, such as women did not have the right to establish the temple, the temple was established on the cremation ground, etc However, the construction of the temple could not be stopped In 1854, the Dakshineswar Temple was built at a cost of nine lakhs of rupees.
About the naming of Dakshineswar, the Zamindar of Deulpota, Bamraja, established his dream temple of Shiva here named "Dakshineswar," and from this the area got its name "Dakshineswar " The " old Shiva" of Dakshineswar Ghat is called by many as the Shiva established by Bamraja On 31 May 1855, (18th Jyeshtha of Bengal 1262), Thursday, on the day of Jagannath's bathing, the temple of Maa Bhavatarini was established in Dakshineswar.
The Brahmins have blocked Rashmoni from office, but the so-called queen Rasmoni has risen above all the classical arguments and has built this Dakshineswar temple in her own person.

Rani Rasmani did not keep the Pandapratha in the Dakshineswar temple she founded, thinking what could happen to the temple and the people if the Brahmins had a monopoly The priestesses kept the mines So this is also a remarkable sign of Rani Rasmani's experienced foresight And she stood up against the caste discrimination of the society by marrying her betrothed maidservant named Saudamini to a Brahmin named Krishnakanta.
The newly wedded couple was also given accommodation by Rani Rasmani in her Janbazar house in Kolkata.
