The Spring Water turned Darkish just before Indira Gandhi was assassinated. When black or darkish, it's believed to be an indication of inauspicious times for Kashmir. In 1886, Walter Lawrence, the-then British settlement commissioner for land, during his visit to the spring, reported the water of the spring to have a violet tinge. Kashmiris claim to have observed a darkish or murky tinge to the water just before the assassination of Indira Gandhi and the 1989 insurgency in the valley. This is the Temple where Ravana offered her kheer (rice pudding), which Goddess Bhavani accepted. Kheer Bhavani Temple is at a distance of 14 miles east of Srinagar near the village of Tula Mula,Kashmir.
