A Visakhapatnam exhibition features 16 millet paintings tracing changing food habits and promoting food heritage, healthy living and millet consumption.

Mr. Bohra, who inaugurated the exhibition on Friday, said using art for a social cause was commendable.
He urged people to learn about and preserve their food heritage, adopt healthy living and include millets in their diet.
