By legends it is believed that saint Galav rishi spent his whole life in search of truth and did 'Tapasya' for several years in galtaji. Pleased with his penance the god appeared before him and blessed his place of worship with abundant water. It has a galta kund which is a holy water tank and the water of the tank never dries. Taking bath in this holy galta kund is considered as pavitra and can wash your all sins.
