Thiruvekka |

|
The Devas surrendered to the Lord when Vegavati (River) at the request (rather fear) of Asuras tried to destroy the Yagna by floods. The Lord lay (sayana) in the way forming a dam and helped Brahma complete the Yagna. The place was called Vegavatianai(Anai - dam) which became Vekka in course of time. |
