Beliram Degchi Wala Expands to Dharamshala: A Testament to Businessmen’s Role in Economic Growth

Dharamsahala: This hill town in north India has welcomed a new culinary destination with the opening of Beliram Degchi Wala, a well-known name in North Indian cuisine. The restaurant, famous for its signature dishes like Maska Chicken, Khameeri Roti, Tandoori Platter, Malai Kofta, and Dal Tadka, now brings its rich flavors to Himachal Pradesh.

Along with North Indian delicacies, the restaurant also serves Continental, Chinese, and Indian cuisine, catering to both vegetarian and non-vegetarian preferences.

The restaurant group, which has gained immense popularity in Delhi, traces its roots to Beliram, a legendary cook from the 18th and 19th century during Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s reign.

With a commitment to preserving traditional flavors while adapting to modern dining trends, Beliram Degchi Wala has expanded its footprint, continuing its legacy of offering premium food experiences.

Businessmen: The Unsung Pillars of the Economy

Speaking at the launch, C.L. Mehra, the owner of the Dharamshala outlet, emphasized the crucial role of business owners in economic development. “It is the businessman who takes risks at his own expense to provide employment.

Governments generally offer no direct support, yet entrepreneurs generate jobs, pay taxes, and contribute significantly to the economy,” he stated.

Mehra’s remarks highlight a fundamental truth—businesses, both small and large, form the backbone of economic progress. Restaurants like Beliram Degchi Wala not only enhance local food culture but also create jobs, boost tourism, and generate tax revenue for the government.

In a region like Himachal Pradesh, where tourism is a key industry, the expansion of renowned brands helps uplift the local economy by attracting both residents and visitors.

The Growing Impact of Entrepreneurs

From food services to hospitality, businesses contribute in multiple ways—providing livelihoods, innovating new solutions, and strengthening regional economies. While policies may shape economic landscapes, it is entrepreneurs who take the initiative to bridge market gaps, create consumer demand, and drive financial activity.

With Beliram Degchi Wala’s entry into Dharamshala, the city now has a taste of a brand that blends heritage with modernity, proving once again that business ventures are not just about profit—they are about building communities and fueling progress.
