The Maa Baglamukhi Mandir, Nalkheda is a renowned Hindu temple situated on the banks of the sacred Lakhundar River, a tributary of the Narmada River, in the town of Nalkheda, located in the Agar Malwa district of Madhya Pradesh, India.

This temple is devoted to Maa Baglamukhi, one of the ten Mahavidyas in the Hindu tradition. Maa Baglamukhi is revered as the goddess of victory, power, and protection. Devotees associate her with the auspicious colour yellow, which is prominently used during rituals and ceremonies at the temple.

The temple serves as a hub for spiritual seekers, especially during the festival of Navratri, when devotees perform special yajnas and worship to seek blessings for success and protection. The temple also sees heightened activities on Guru Purnima, with many seeking the blessings of Maa Baglamukhi for wisdom and guidance.
