so I asked permission to speak about local cuisine of Ahmednagar and its part in tourism development. Told them that everyone visits temples but are not aware of these places. Requested them if they visit Shirdi someday please visit those food joints(Hurda Party) .it helps to boost farmer’s income and will be a nice experience for them as well.
Chairman : We keep learning about new things from young people like you, thank you, we shall visit.
