'''Khandpara State''' was one of the [[princely state]]s of India during the period of the [[British Raj]]. It was located in present-day [[Nayagarh district]], [[Odisha]].<br />
<br />
The state was bounded in the north by the [[Mahanadi]] River. The main town was [[Kantilo]], but the capital was at [[Khandpara]] (Khandapada).<ref>Great Britain India Office. ''[[The Imperial Gazetteer of India]]''. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1908.</ref><br />

==History==<br />
Khandpara State is said to be founded by Jadunath Singh Mangaraj, the youngest son of Raja Raghunath Singh of Nayagarh, who retained possession of four Garhs or forts, as his share, viz. Kadua, Ghuntasahi, Saradhapur, and Khedapada, which are located in Nayagarh region. Jadunath Singh is also said to have received the title Mangaraj from the Gajapati Maharaja. In the reign of Raja Narayan Singh Mangraj, Khandpara extended on the east up to Banki, on the west to Balaramprasad in Daspalla, on the north to Kantilo, and on the south up to Jogiapali.<ref>{{citation |title=ODISHA DISTRICT GAZETTEERS NAYAGARH |publisher=GAD, Govt of Odisha |url=http://gopabandhuacademy.gov.in/sites/default/files/gazetter/Nayagarh_Gazetteer.pdf |page=44 |date=2015 }}</ref><ref>{{citation |title=Bengal Gazetteers Feudatory States Of Orissa |publisher=DLI |url=https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.206889 |author=Cobden Ramsay |page=232 |date=1910 }}</ref><ref>[https://dsal.uchicago.edu/reference/gazetteer/pager.html?objectid=DS405.1.I34_V15_247.gif ''Imperial Gazetteer of India'', v. 15, p. 247.]</ref><br />
