In competition with 17 food items from across India with a Geographical Indication (GI) status -- including the Rasogulla, Bikaneri Bhujiya and Ratlami Sev -- the Hyderabadi Haleem beat all of them to bag the 'Most Popular GI' award in the food category.
The aromatic stew-like dish is made with pounded meat, lentils, wheat along with spices, and is most popular during Ramzan.
In 2010 the Hyderabadi Haleem was first accorded the GI status.
While this expired in December 2019, the registrar of Geographical Indication renewed the tag earlier this year. The renewed GI status is now valid for 10 years.
If we talk about other Telangana items which were given GI Tag, they include Nirmal Toys and Crafts, Nirmal Furniture, Nirmal Paintings, Gadwal Sarees and Banaganpalle Mangoes.
