This is Maa Uttarayani temple at Ghasiandhoti, Kurunjipur, Balipatna, Bhubaneswar.

Just look at the magnificent architecture.

Locals told that temple is very old & none knows since when it's present there. The goddess is similar to NAGAKANYA images seen at Konarka.

ନା ସମଲପୁରିଆ, ନା ବଲାଙ୍ଗିରିଆ
ନା ଯାଜପୁରିଆ, ନା ମୁଁ ଢେଙ୍କାନାଳିଆ
ବରହମପୁରିଆ ନୁହେଁ ମୁଁ, ନୁହେଁ କଟିକିଆ
ସାରା ଓଡ଼ିଶା ମୋରି ଘର
ମୁଁ ଅଟେ ଖାଣ୍ଟି ଓଡ଼ିଆ ।
