Pondicherry (or Puducherry), a French colonial settlement in India until 1954, is now a Union Territory town bounded by the southeastern Tamil Nadu state.
The original name of the territory, Putucceri, is derived from the Tamil words putu (“new”) and ceri (“village”).
However, Puducherry is one of the three union territories in India (the other being National Capital Territory of Delhi and Jammu and Kashmir) that is entitled by a special constitutional amendment to have an elected legislative assembly and a cabinet of ministers, thereby conveying partial statehood.

For the protection of the Dharma on earth, Lord Krishna killed the devil King Shishupal. Lord Krishna was hurt in the war and left with bleeding finger.
Seeing his bleeding finger, Draupadi had torn a strip of her saree and tied around his injured finger to stop the bleeding.
Lord Krishna has valued to her concern and affection. He felt bounded by her sisterly love & compassion.
He pledged to repay the debt of gratitude in her future. After many years, Pandavas lost their wife Draupadi in the game of dice to crooked Kauravas.
