History & significance

A math and temple at Mathpara in Raipur founded in the 16th century by Swami Balabhadradas, who was called Dudh Ahari because he lived on milk alone and so gave the place its name. The Bhonsle Maratha ruler of Nagpur, Raghuji, later issued a charter conferring the title Rajeshri on each head of the math.
