Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B

Explanation

Lucknow was officially designated as a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy on October 31, 2025, during the 43rd session of the UNESCO General Conference. It is the second Indian city to receive this prestigious recognition in the gastronomy category, following Hyderabad (2019). The designation honors Lucknow's centuries-old Awadhi culinary heritage, famous for its sophisticated flavors and traditional cooking techniques like 'Dum Pukht' (slow cooking). The UNESCO Creative Cities Network (UCCN), established in 2004, recognizes cities that place creativity and cultural industries at the heart of their development. With Lucknow's inclusion, India now has nine cities in the network, including others like Gwalior (Music), Kozhikode (Literature), and Srinagar (Crafts and Folk Arts).
