Pushkar Nag, Budgam

Pushkar Nag, situated east of the village of Poshker, in the middle of Ferozpora and Khag, is a historical spring. According to popular belief, Kashmiri pandits used to perform prayers known as Diavai Paath at the spring in the month of Sawan of the Hindu calendar.

The priests also would take a dip in this spring to attain blessings. The spring finds mention in the Nilamata Purana, a mythological text, according to which, a dip in this spring brings devotees spiritual benefits similar to that of the night-long Vedas recitations.
