It is believed that there was a very famous devotee of hanumanji named mohandas.He was so much dedicated to hanumanji that hanumanji usually came to meet him at his living place. Seeing him so indulge, Mohandasji's sister kandibai decided for his marriage.Other side,mohandas was not willing to get married.So he told a lie to his sister about the girl's death with whom she decided him to marry,that girl died on that day only.After this mohandas ji remained single for life. The temple was constructed/looked after under the surveillance of mohandas ji later.
The history of this temple dates back to 1811 in a village called Asota, where a farmer while ploughing his field, got stuck by some rock under the earth. After clearing the farmer found an idol of Lord Hanuman. The Thakur of that village shifted the idol to Salasar for proper religious ceremony. Thakur brought two bulls, placed hanumanji's idol on its cart and left them in the open courts by believing where ever the bulls would stop, the temple would be built up at that place only.The place where bulls stopped a temple was built up and that place was named as salasar.Many of the villagers and the shopkeepers shifted to that place and started living there.A new village came in the existence this how. Initially the idol was housed in a hut, the place later developed into a concrete temple, and today it is a large temple complex.It is said that drinking water of the wells of the salasar is blessed by the lord Hanumanji.
