This is a historic temple located in Kenduli (also written as Kendubilwa) village in Balianta block, Khordha district of Odisha. It’s dedicated to Goddess Chandi, a form of the Divine Mother (Shakti). The temple site contains relics and ruins from earlier periods, indicating it was an important religious site possibly dating back to the 10th–11th century A.D.. The modern structure has been rebuilt on the older temple’s plinth and is protected by the Odisha State Archaeology Department. Kenduli is more widely known as the birthplace of the celebrated poet Jayadeva, author of the Gita Govinda, and has other ancient temples and archaeological remains of Saiva, Vaishnava and Sakta cults. Local sources mention there is a Maa Chandi temple at this heritage spot, often visited by devotees and tourists exploring the Jayadeva heritage site
