Kalighat Kali Temple is a Hindu temple in West Bengal, India dedicated to the Hindu goddess Kali.[1] It is one of the 51 Shakti Peethas. Kalighat was a Ghat Ganga. Kalighat is regarded as one of the 51 Shakti Peethas of India, where the various parts of Sati's body are said to have fallen, in the course of Shiva's Rudra Tandava. Kalighat represents the site where the toes of the right foot of Dakshayani or Sati fell. Legend has it that in January 1570, Padmabati Debi, wife of Jiya Gangopadhyaya of the Sabarna Roy Choudhury family saw a luminant ray of light coming from the Kali Kunda, and upon investigating its source came upon a piece of stone carved in the form of a human foot.[2] This divine occurring led to the birth of Laksmikanta Roy Choudhury later in October 1570[3] Kalighat is also associated with the worship offered to Kali by a Dasanami Monk by name Chowranga Giri, and the Chowringee area of Calcutta is said to have been named after him.
