    The Indian Hotel and Restaurant Association (AHAR) recently "suggested" to popular Mumbai Chinese restaurant Ling’s Pavillion that they add Maharashtrian dishes to their menu.

    Ramdas Athawale of the Republican Party of India (who is also the Union Minister of State for social justice) suggested this move to "promote Maharashtrian cuisine and ensure all restaurants serve such dishes at affordable rates" to the Indian Hotel and Restaurant Association (AHAR).

    The owner of the restaurant, Baba Ling, told Mumbai Mirror that he decided to add Maharashtrian cuisine to the menu after AHAR asked the restaurant owners to do so.

    The restaurant charges ₹300 for an order of misal pav.

    And Twitter took no time in being upset about the decision.
