In Durgashtami in Chetr and in Assu, at the locality of Bareri, Hindus from
the vicinity, to the number of about 400, assemble at the top of Bareri hill to
worship Devi (as Durga)and to present offerings, which are taken by a Brahmin
of Mansehra. The assembly on each occasion lasts only one day. The boulders near
the base of Bareri Hill are notable because they contain Ashokan inscriptions.
At the nearby village of Chitti Gatti, there is an old temple dedicated to
Shiva and probably one of the oldest Shiva Lingas in the region
