Tanot Mata Temple

The Tanot Mata Temple is located 120 kilometers from Jaisalmer. Goddess Hinglaj is said to have reincarnated as Tanot Mata. There are several accounts of Tanot being heavily shelled and attacked during the 1965 India-Pakistan war. None of the shells or explosives that were fired at the mosque, however, detonated. People's trust in Goddess the temple was reaffirmed as a result of this. The Border Security Force (BSF) restored the temple after the battle, and it is now run by a BSF Trust.
