Tamreswari temple (also Dikkaravasini) is a temple for a tribal goddess called Kecaikhati is located about 18 km from Sadiya in Tinsukia district, Assam, India. The temple used to be administered by Deoris, non-Brahmin tribal priests. There are some remnants that designate a Chutiya king built the wall or the temple itself in the year 1442. There were four different types of Deori priests that took care of the temple. The Bar Bharali and the Saru Bharali collected the dues of the temple and provided animals for sacrifice. The Bar Deori (Deori Dema) and the Saru Deori (Deori Surba) carried out the sacrifice and sang hymns. The temple is dedicated to Kechaikhati/Pishasi (kechai means raw and khati means eat), a tribal deity, or the Buddhist deity Tara, typical of different Bodo-Kachari groups. The worship of this goddess, even after coming under Hinduism, continued according to her old tribal customs. The temple was abandoned during the reign of Suhitpangphaa (1780 – 1795), when the Ahom kingdom was forayed upon by the Konbaung dynasty of Burma. Some authors suggest that Kecaikhaiti is identical to Tai-Khamti female deity Nang Hoo Toungh.
