Though our prime minister has constantly talked about the tea, nothing on the country’s unique sweets came from him. We used to savour the sweets almost on all occasions. If tea remains a very, very foreign ingestion, sweets are our purely indigenous inspiration.
Every state has at least one particular kind of sweet which remains popular with its different taste and originality. But the mark attained by the Bengal’s rosogolla through the Geographical Identification tag on November 14, 2017, keeps other sweets away from so many well-liked sweets.
Something that has gained the favour of the Bengal’s rosogolla is its profound uniqueness. A ball-shaped cottage cheese dumpling dipped in the wispy syrup of sugar has received the extraordinary sign. It has thus identified with a particular place.
We did not speak another word for Rosogolla Day which the West Bengal government will observe on ensuing day of November 14, this year. It was something we never anticipated. We were not surprised at the approved merit of the sweetmeat’s indigenous worth.
The idea behind the observance of rosogolla day is quite novel thought. It seems to have entirely based on the sweet’s quality which holds pan-Indian significance. As we know, it will be observed in one thickly populated state where life appears bitter without the intake of it. A coolness races over the people’s skin after gulping it down.
Why do other states not consider over observing a day on sweet like Bengal? This could bring the particular tag after the popularity of every special sweet. However, there lurks all but a narrow imperceptible penchant towards such consideration.
