Union Cabinet Minister of Food Processing Harsmirat Kaur Badal stated that the ministry named the dish as a representative of Indian cuisine as it is relished by people from all economic backgrounds across the country. Badal also stated that the ministry now aims to market khichdi and introduce it to the rest of the world. The Union Minister posted a tweet on Tuesday, inviting people to come to the event, which will be inaugurated by Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu.
Allthough, Khichdi is the wonder staple food of India and is considered the healthiest prepared food and it is being eaten across length and breadth of India by rich and poor,"
Here is how people on Twitter reacted:
Do people in India really eat Khichdi? I haven’t seen it even in a hotel menu. #Khichdi

While a demand was made to declare Khichdi as the national food, Union Minister of Food Processing Industries, Harsimrat Kaur Badal tweeted clarifying that khichdi is just a record entry at the World Food India event.
Enough Khichdi cooked up on a fictitious 'National Dish’. It has only been put for a record entry in #WorldFoodIndia.
