Overview

The place Bijli Mahadev is full of mystery and miracles. The name comes from the fact that the lightening ( Bijli ) strikes the Shiva linga inside the temple and breaks it into pieces. The Shiva linga is joined together and installed in a special occasion using a locally made adhesive of butter. One can witness the charred part (especially on the walls) inside the temple which is due to the flames resulted during lightning.
