Hyderabadi haleem to get GI tag soon
HYDERABAD: Hyderabad is famous for the Charminar, Salarjung Museum, biryani and IT companies — and the Hyderabadi haleem is now all set to join the vaunted list.
The famous and nutritious dish available here during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan will soon get the Hyderabadi tag akin to Darjeeling tea, Banarasi silk and Tirupati laddoo.
Once the Geographical Indicator (GI) tag is granted, Haleem makers outside Hyderabad will not be able to sell their product as Hyderabadi Haleem and even those within the city can claim the GI tag only if they meet the quality standards.
"We are hopeful of getting the GI tag before the end of this Ramadan as we have qualified for the same," S. Ravi, patent manager and Intellectual Property consultant of Adhikari IP Consultants, said.
