Tamreswari temple (also Dikkaravasini, Kesai Khati) is situated about 18 km away from Sadiya in Tinsukia district, Assam, India. The temple was in the custody of non-Brahmin tribal priests called Deoris. Some remains suggest that a Chutiya king built a wall in the year 1442. The temple was dedicated to Kechaikhati (kechai means raw and khati means eat), a powerful tribal deity or a form of the Buddhist deity Tara, commonly found among different Bodo-Kachari groups.The worship of the goddess even after coming under Hindu influence was performed according to her old tribal customs. The temple was abandoned during the reign of Suhitpangphaa (1780 - 1795), when the Ahom kingdom was attacked by the Konbaung dynasty of Burma. Scholars assert that Kesaikhaiti is equivalent to the Tai-Khamti femal
