In 1930, a British officer working as a SI (Sub Inspector) in a police station committed suicide (which is now called one town police station)
Our gods and goddesses are generally despised by British people. He mentioned Ammavaru once during a conversation with others.

People around him cautioned him that talking about Ammavaru in that manner was inappropriate (Kanakadurga Devi)
"I'll talk to her and see what she does," he replied. He proceeded to take recklessly.

After coming home, he discovered that his wife and four children had contracted smallpox and were in a dreadful state.
When he left for work in the morning, they were all doing fine. However, by the time he returned home, they were all in bad shape.
He became terrified, realized his error, and dashed to Indrakeeladri. He pleaded with Ammavaru and offered her Sashtanga Namaskaram.

"O, mother! Please forgive me for my blunder, which I made because of my false ego. Please help me save my wife and kids."
He promised himself that if Ammavaru saved his family, he would rejoice.

He returned home with prescription medications. When he opened the door, he was astounded to discover that neither his wife nor his children had even a trace of smallpox on their bodies.
He was taken aback and said that on every Vijayadashami, they would perform "Paru vetotsavam" at Jammi Chettu in Vijayawada, then take Ammavaru to the police station and keep her with us for one day. This custom has been carried on since then.
Even now, on Vijayadashami, when Ammavaru is being returned to the mountain after Teppotsavam, you will witness CI's from one town police station arriving with royal emblems and carrying Ammavaru to their police station with tremendous joy, as if she were their mother.
That day, the police station would be decorated like a temple, as the event is very important to them. For darshan, Ammavaru is housed at the police station.
For CIs serving at one town police station, this is a tradition that has been passed down down the generations.

This episode was documented in the 1930 Endowments Gazette.
You could think it's unfair to witness individuals contracting smallpox, cholera, and other diseases simply because they said anything negative about Ammavaru.

Keep one thing in mind. When Ammavaru wants to spend a day in the police station, she fabricates instances like Her Leela.
The most important point is that we should never talk about the Mahatmas of God casually.
