HISTORY
One Mr. Kunjukrishnan cleared a small piece of land at 832, Sembawang
Road in 1962, placed several shrines / deities and started praying. Taxi
drivers congregated in the area for relaxation. After the death of Mr.
Kunjukrishnan, Mr. Velayutham further cleared the area and brought in
more deities. As the time passed by, the Temple was named “Sri Siva-
Krishna Temple”. With more and more devotees and revenue coming to the
Temple, it was suggested that the surroundings of the Temple be kept
clean so as to give the Temple a dignified look.
In 1982, the Temple was shifted to the present site at Marsiling Rise. The
land area is about 25000 Square feet. Various committees took care of the
temple from 1982 to 1987. In 1987, a new committee took charge of the
temple and immediately performed the ground breaking ceremony. On
Wednesday, 9 December 1987, “Shanku Sthapanam” ceremony was held
and then actual construction of the temple followed. The first consecration
ceremony of the temple took place on 1 September 1996. The second
consecration ceremony of the temple took place on 23 March 2008.View Less
