  Chicken Rajpipla is a unique recipe that comes from Rajpipla, a small town on the banks of the Narmada river in Gujarat. Very close to the Statue of Unity. Rajpipla was a 13 Gun Salute princely state from the 14th century to when it was integrated with the Indian republic in 1948. In the modern era, Rajpipla came into focus with the ascension of Maharaja Vijaysinhji ChhatraSinhji Sahib to the throne in 1915.
