One of the most popular temples in Bikaner, this one has been flabbergasting the pest control for a while now. With rats all over the temple, the prasad and everywhere else, the Karni Mata temple has more than one legends to explain. Folklore has it that when an army of about 20,000, left the battle and came to Karni Mata, she though spared them life in spite of the sin of desertion, turned them into rats and let them have the temple as their place to stay.

Having leftovers by rats as prasad is considered lucky and in case a rat is killed, the same must be replaced by a gold one.
