Bihar Tourism in association with the SAGA, Gurugram is making all-out efforts to actively encourage the culture, heritage, and cuisines of the state. It is a vision of our Hon'ble Chief Minister that every Indian thali should at least have a dish from Bihar in its serving. We are hopeful that this initiative shall indeed win the taste buds of everyone and will make them connect with Bihar's Culture and Cuisine."
