AGNI PUTRI – द्रौपदी को अग्निपुत्री कहते हैं – From pages of history for DRDO friends

Mythical story of Mahabharata told that wife of Pandavas, Draupadi is also called as “Agni Putri” (daughter of fire, the daughter of Agni dev, The God of Fire).

Draupadi literally means the daughter of Drupada. She is also called Panchali, which means princess of Panchala or Punjab.

But she was not the genetic daughter of Drupada. This dark beauty called Krishnaa (कृष्णा) was Agni Putri – the daughter of Agni Deva.

Vyasa poetically says that Draupadi “emerged from the fire”, therefore Draupadi is called as Agni Putri.

(द्रौपदी को अग्निपुत्री कहते हैं).  Dharmaraya Temple in Bangalore is having statue of Draupadi in the temple and she called there as Agni putri
