She is considered to be a mother who provides to her devotees and also plays the role of dispensing justice by killing Asuras. In the state of Maharastra, worship of Tulja Bhavani goes back to antiquity with many royal houses and noble families as patrons of the goddess. The most famous of them being the warrior king Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.
