Mallika Dureja
Overview
Om Banna Dham is the perfect destination for the curious traveler who is always looking for new experiences. Unlike other temples in Pali Rajasthan, this one is truly out of the ordinary.
This is due to the fact that upon entering the temple, rather than a statue or idol of a deity, one will find a Royal Enfield motorcycle. The fact that a devoted following meets daily to pray at the bike only adds to its allure. A picture of a regular guy and his motorcycle are on display at this shrine.
The man in the picture is rumored to be bullet baba Om (Singh Rathore) Banna. From Bangdi, he rode to Pali’s Chotila Village, where he tragically crashed into a tree and died. His bike, which he had left at the police station, went missing and was discovered the next day at the scene of the accident. People in the dangerous stretch of the Pali highway continue to put their faith in the idea that his spirit watches over them.
Location: Opp Rajputana Hotel, National Highway 62, Om Banna, Rajasthan 306421.
Distance from Pali Bus Stand: 27 km.
