At a time, the temple was with all the glory and the festivals were conducted grandly in the proper Vedic tradition. But later, due to so many reasons the belongs of Plappilli Illam & Temple were lost & temple and Illam suffered financially. This resulted in deterioration of the regular programs & tradition of temple.

The temple became very old and was in need of immediate structure refurbishment. The devotees lined up with Plappilli Illam to renovate the temple and they made it possible to have the present day temple. Still the works are on going and many more are to be done to bring the temple to a “Poornakaya Maha Kshethram” (a fully structured grand temple according to Vedic Norms). As stated, there is a long way to go and indeed financial & physical cooperation from the devotees are requested to accomplish those. The transformation of the temple to “Poornakaya Maha Kshethram” would bring more prosperity to the devotees & Mangaanam Desam as a whole. The Temple Trust would like to appeal to the devotees to participate & help the renovations and upgrades which are being done at the temple.
