The ghat has a temple dedicated to the Goddess Ganga.
In Varanasi, the rivers Yamuna, Ganga, Saraswathi, Kirana and Dhutpapa flow as the Pancha-ganga under the shelter of Lord Bindu Madhav’s lotus feet. The Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswathi rivers together come from Prayag,

whereas Kirana river which is a fierceful river originated from the sweat of Surya Deva who underwent rigid and unwavering penances to please Lord Vishnu. Dhutpapa river is the daughter of Sage Devsheera who worshipped and underwent penances to please Lord Vishnu, who on being satisfied with the penances gave a boon that anyone who has darshan of Lord Bindu Madhav after taking a bath in the Pancha-ganga rivers will be rid of all sins accumulated and will get liberated.
