According to legend, the Bijli Mahadev Temple was constructed by a sage named Vyas Muni. It is believed that the temple houses a 60-foot tall staff that serves as a lightning conductor. The staff is struck by lightning during thunderstorms, and each time it is believed that the priest at the temple has to restore it by using butter and sattoo (a mixture of barley and wheat flour).
