தாஜ் மஹாலை கோயிலாக்க முதல் கட்டமாக காவிகள் கிளப்பிய சர்ச்சை
தாஜ் மஹால் சிவன் கோயில் அல்ல என திட்டவட்டமாக மறுத்த டில்லி அரசு
The temple is dedicated to the Goddess Lakshmi.

According to historians such as Narendra Luther maintain that temple had no existence of any sorts until the 1960s.

According to these historians, one of the stones near Charminar was painted with the saffron color in 1965, and an old woman became the person in-charge of this “shrine”.
.
After an APSRTC bus collided with the stone and damaged it, a pucca structure was created at the site. The stone was replaced with an idol of the goddess Lakshmi. Every year, Bhagyalakshmi temple is decorated for Dasara and Deepawali for a few days.

The temple has been a subject of controversy due to its location in a Muslim-majority area, and the alleged threat it poses to the historic Charminar structure.

In the 1960s, the replacement of the holy stone with an idol and the addition of a temporary shed evoked communal tensions.

The construction activity, which was illegal according to the ASI, was stopped by the police.
