Nagnechiya Mata
Nagnechiya Mata is the kuldevi of the Rathores of Marwar and Bikaner, worshipped as Chakreshwari and as 18-armed Mahishasuramardini. Rao Dhuhad brought her idol from Kannauj and installed it at Nagana (Pachpadra) — hence “Nagnechi”.
Her emblem, the falcon/kite, appeared on the flags of Jodhpur, Bikaner and Kishangarh. Special worship is held at Navratri.
