Sri Jayadeba Pitha - Kenduli Sasan (Odisha)

"Kenduli Sasan" is a village in Odisha near Prachi river.
Indian literature refers to this place by the name
Kendubilwa/Kenduvilva/Kinduvilwa/Tinduvilwa etc etc...

One can reach the village by taking multiple routes.
One of the routes as below:-
Bhubaneswar Railway station > Rasulgarh > Naharakanta Road > Jagannathpur > Kurangsasan > Barahipur > KENDULI SASAN.

Now the question comes:- What is important about this place?
And the answer is:- It is the birth place of Sri Jayadeba (Jayadev), the poet who composed the epic poem GEETA GOBINDA (Geeta Govindam / Geet Govind).

There was a long standing controversy on the birth place of Sri Jayadeba.
There is a village in West Bengal called Kenduli (Previous name: Kendubiloo).
Kenduli (West Bengal) was initially thought to be the birthplace.
But Odias believed the exact birthplace to be Keduli Sasan (Previous name: Kenduvilwa) in Odisha.
Recently when department of Archeological survey of India and the historians and scholars from Odisha and West Bengal gave their research report, Kenduli Sasan (Odisha) was accepted as the actual birthplace and it was inaugurated in 2004.

Please have a look at the below pics from the "Jayadeba/Jayadev Pitha".
