The Puneri Pagadi is a distinctive style of turban, which is considered as a symbol of pride and honor in the city of Pune.[1] It was introduced two centuries ago.[2] Though it is a symbol of honour, the use of the pagadi has changed over the years and now it is also used on traditional days in colleges.[3] To preserve the identity of the pagadi, there were demands from the locals to grant it a Geographical Indication (GI) status.[3] Their demand was fulfilled and the pagadi became an intellectual property on 4 September 2009.[1][3][4][5][6]
