This temple was constructed by Sri P. K. Parameswaran Nair, a member of Madathil Veedu of Pirayar (Pirayar Kara). Inspired by a vision from Pazhavangadi Sree Mahaganapathy Temple, he built the temple in his hometown in 1995.

He was the guiding light and founder of Varma Group, Trivandrum, and proprietor of Varma Travels, fuel centres, and several Kalyana Mandapams. A devoted follower of Lord Ganesha, he decorated the temple walls with various forms of Ganesha, which is the main attraction for visitors.
