Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 06 Mar, 2016 12:18 PM

Canada's first Sikh Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan now has a chicken burger named after him and it is called 'The Minister of National Deliciousness'.

45-year-old Sajjan, who was in November named Canada's Minister of National Defence in Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's 30-member Liberal cabinet, stopped by a downtown Vancouver eatery to sample the burger named in his honour.

"National Deliciousness indeed! Tried my namesake burger at #Vancouver's @TheCannibalCafe and was not disappointed," Mr Sajjan tweeted after eating the burger.
