Purmandal (also called Chhota Kashi)[2] is a village located on the Devika River in Samba district, Jammu and Kashmir, India.

The village and its temples are a pilgrimage site for Hindus, who believe bathing in the river cleanses the soul.

Uttarvehni in local language (i.e., Dogri) means flowing towards north.

Purmandal Temple, dedicated to Parvati, is built on the west bank of the river.

The devotees take a holy dip in the Devak river and seek blessings.
