As per history, Jayadeva the great poet of the 12th century offered his ‘Gitagobinda’ to Lord Jagannath by way of fabrics. He got them woven in his native birthplace Kenduli village where the lyrics of the ‘Gitagobinda’ were woven in the fabric. The technique used for weaving the motifs on the fabric was by tie & dye method. Then the King of Puri issued an order to Nuapatna(Tigiria) to supply Gitagobinda fabrics.Khanduas Silk Saree is not only ‘The pride of Odisha’ but they are rich in culture and heritage and closely associated with Lord Jagannath in many ways. Moreover historically Jagannath’s ‘Angavastra’ is made from Khandua fabric.
