TEMPLES
WORLD' LONGEST SAREE OFFERED AT PADMAVATHI JAIN TEMPLE IN TAMIL NADU The 685 metres saree was made for adorning the presiding deity of Parshwa Padmavathi Jain temple in Krishnagiri in Tamil Nadu, by Kumaran Silks. The 'kumkum' (maroon) coloured saree handed over to the temple has already been draped around the deity. The Guinness Book of World Records has registered it under the tag the longest saree, offered to goddess Padmavathi, According to manufacturer, doing this job was a prestige issue. Since the Jain
community are not supposed to use silk but to give the rich look of silk, they went in for silkon, a thread closely resembling silk, which is rarely used in weaving sarees. The job was to be completed in 21 days but actually they could finish in 18 days. Weaving long sarees of late has become a prestige issue among leading textile firms in South India. Last year Kochi-based 'Seematti' had come out with a 1,585 ft saree. In 2005, 'Pothys', another firm in Chennai, had woven a 1,276 ft saree.
