| One of the "Ashtavinayak" Shri Siddhi Vinayak is at Siddhatek in Nagar district.
The idol is believed to be "Swayambhu" as was found or , not sculpted by human hands.Siddhatek is situated on the banks of Bhima River. Lord Brahma once created a world with Ganpati's blessings and while this was going on, Vishnu woke up and two fierce demons Madhu and Kaitaba escaped from his ears. Vishnu fought with them for 5000 years, then Lord Shiva pointed out that Vishnu had started without worshipping Ganpati, so Vishnu invoked Ganpati on Siddhatek hill and , destroyed the demons successfully and consecrated the spot.
