Once a chinese kid fell ill. After many tries, the child did not showed any recovery. No-one was able to identify the reason of his sickness. The family member of that child started praying in front of those stones kept under tree. After contine worship, the child showed improvement. After this, chinese people started to beleive in the power of Goddess Kali. AFter few years, people built a temple at that place, and is now known as Chinese Kali Maa temple.

Even though for most of the year, the Chinese and Hindu neighbourhood are barely seen mingling with each other, but come pujo, and there is an energy that surrounds the people of the place. Even on a regular weekday, you can see Chinese residents take off their shoes and enter the temple to invoke the blessings of the goddess.
