'''Maiser Khana''' is a temple built to honour the goddesses [[Durga]] and [[Jwala Ji]]. It is built 29 kilometers away from [[Bathinda]], [[Punjab, India|Punjab]], India, on Bathinda-Mansa Road.<ref>[http://bathinda.nic.in/html/places_to_visit.html#N10002 Exact Location of the Mandir] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100727122136/http://bathinda.nic.in/html/places_to_visit.html |date=2010-07-27 }}</ref> Each year two grand [[mela]]s are held here on ashtmi. According to a legend, long ago, a person called "Kamala", having failed to undertake hazardous [[pilgrimage]] to far off Jwala ji,<ref>[http://www.bharatonline.com/punjab/bathinda/tourist-attractions.html Bathinda Tourist Attractions]</ref> underwent a lifelong penance to honour Durga for her [[Darśana|darshan]] and the goddess was pleased to grant him a vision twice a year, so two melas are held each year.
.<ref>[http://www.tribuneindia.com/2002/20020421/punjab1.htm#35 Maiser Khana mela concludes]</ref> People gather from almost all over from Punjab and even nearby states to join in singing hymns in praise of the deity. This is also considered important from political point of view because both [[Sikhs]] and [[Hindus]] gather with equal enthusiasm.<ref>[https://archive.today/20070515082145/http://punjabi.webdunia.com/religion/religiousjourney/articles/0712/05/1071205037_1.htm ਜਿੱਥੇ ਦਰਸ਼ਨ ਦਿੰਦੀ ਹੈ ਮਾਤਾ ਜਵਾਲਾ ਜੋਤ ]</ref> As early as 1951 the devotees had requested [[Mahavir Dal]] to take over the shrine, which was decaying due to Government indifference. Only then the three high-ups namely Radhesham Budhlada, Jagannath ji of [[Maur Mandi]] and Hansraj Aggarwal collected funds and hired India's best architects to build the temple.<ref>[http://punjabi.webdunia.com/religion/religiousjourney/articles/0712/05/1071205037_2.htm History at Webdunia] {{webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20120716114623/http://punjabi.webdunia.com/religion/religiousjourney/articles/0712/05/1071205037_2.htm |date=2012-07-16 }}</ref> It was one of the nine spots the Bathinda administration claimed would be developed to turn the district into tourist hub of Punjab.<ref>[http://www.expressindia.com/latest-news/tourism-projects-run-into-rough-weather/357407/ Tourism projects run into rough weather] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090508033426/http://www.expressindia.com/latest-news/tourism-projects-run-into-rough-weather/357407/ |date=2009-05-08 }}</ref>
