'''Biswanathpur''' is a village in [[Ganjam]] district in the south of [[Odisha, India]], bordering [[Andhra Pradesh]]. This village owes its name to [[Vishwanath Dev Gajapati]], the [[Suryavansha|Suryavanshi]] king of [[Kalinga (historical region)|Kalinga]] who founded this place after conducting a royal anicent ritual known as 'Vajapeya Yagna'. It is located southeast of [[Berhampur]] and northeast of [[Ichchapuram]].

==History==
Vishwanath Dev was a king of Nandapur and a tributary of the [[Gajapati Empire]]. After the death of [[Prataprudra Deva]], his heirs were assassinated by his minister Govinda Vidyadhar. The fall of the Gajapatis left a political vacuum and eventually all vassal and tributary kingdoms under the Gajapatis claimed independence. At that point of time, Vishwanath rose to the occasion and began expanding his territories towards the northern region or Utkala (Ut:''Uttar'',Kal:''Kalinga''). In 1542, he sent Mukund Harichandran Bahubalendra to seize the fort of Govinda Vidyadhar in [[Cuttack]]. Mukund was a feudal chief of Krishnakota ([[Kasimkota]]) feudatory of his kingdom. Evidently, Mukund was successful in forcing Govinda Vidyadhar into surrendering the whole northern territory and convinced him to become a tributary of Vishwanath Dev. Later, Vishwanath appointed Mukund as the minister of Govinda Vidyadhar's kingdom who later went on to occupy the kingdom of Utkala.{{sfn|KBS Singh|1939|p=26}}

After claiming the northern territories, Vishwanath founded a kingdom that touched the confines of modern day [[Jharkhand]] and [[West Bengal]] in North to [[Godavari River]] and [[Telangana]] in South. As a result, he conducted a vedic ritual known as ‘Vajapeya Yagna' that is second only to the [[Ashvamedha]]. After the completion of the ritual he donated 'Dana Sasana' or a gift decree and named the place as Vishwanathpur.{{sfn|KBS Singh|1939|p=25}}
