Nil Barahi



In an inconspicuous corner near the Kot Square is the temple of Nil Barahi. The eeriness of the nearby tea shop which looks like a hangout for gangsters is only exceeded by the deity enshrined. Nil Barahi is also believed to be the goddess of witches and is said to be piously worshipped by those who practice witchcraft. On the day of Gathe Mangal or Pisach Chaturdasi festival, when locals perform tantric poojas at their homes to ward off evil spirits, witches are said to visit the temple.
