Vishnu Puran written update for June 2, 2020-

As the Samundra Manthan was underway, a pot of poison appears and starts boiling. It was the Kalkuta poison that comes into being due to Samundra Manthan and starts spreading its smoke. The flame of Kalkuta poison is very intense. All the devatas and demons are then seen burning with the flame of the poison. This leads to lot of chaos on the earth, and people started running here and there to save themselves.

All the devatas then turn to Lord Shiva and ask for his help in such a situation. The devatas then together meditate on Lord Shankar. Lord Shiva drinks the poison of Kalkut to protect his devotees. His throat turns blue due to the effect of this poison and hence, Lord Vishnu gives him the title of 'Neelkanth'.
