There is a Hindu temple, dedicated to Shiva, called Gangeshwar Mandir. There is a huge fair during Mahashivratri at this temple. It is believed that this temple was built by gangmaurya who was one of the senapati of maury vansh. So this place is called gangmaurya also.. by the years this name is converted to gangamora eventually. Also there is a school for deaf children.

Kachholi is also called the birthplace of politics because the Indian National Congress had its head office in the village in early 1900.
