Chintpurni Temple (Maa Chintpurni)

Chintpurni is a small town in Una district, Himachal Pradesh, noted for the Maa Chintpurni Temple, a major pilgrimage site traditionally identified as one of the Shakta pithas. Sources describe the site's elevation at about 977 meters and place it roughly 40 km north of Una. The available materials do not provide a founding or construction date. The site's significance is primarily religious: it is an active center of Shakta devotion and pilgrimage. In addition to its religious role, the temple has appeared in formal legal proceedings; a petition involving the Commissioner, Temple Chintpurni reached the Himachal Pradesh High Court (CWP No. 320 of 2005, decided 27 December 2007), indicating the institution's administrative and governance importance.

The provided sources contain no accounts of apparitions, hauntings, poltergeist activity, or other supernatural phenomena beyond the worship of the presiding deity, Maa Chintpurni.
