Nobody supports it. Just because few people did, you can’t project it as some mainstream tradition. Do you support burning of women by branding them witches or creating famines to kill millions. Even though these heinous act was quite mainstream amongst the Christian priestly class & colonialism, we can’t say that British or European culture is responsible for this.

Most of these are consequences of some real reasons. Yamuna cleaning requires removal of illegal settlements on banks & illegal factories running in these settlements. Garbage collection & cleanliness needs to be handed over to private agencies, instead of Municipal workers. Total ban on single use plastic. Work from home as a policy needs to be devised along with corporates to reduce number of cars by targeting 30% WFH. Also align commercial spaces to infra by moving offices outside NCR to other cities.

Most problems in urban areas emanate from the ever expanding cities. Just look at Delhi NCR which is 6-7 cities converted into one massive urban block. Obviously it will take a toll on resources and the environment- more cars & traffic, pollution, expensive real estate, overcrowded public transport. One solution lies in building small cities with green belts around them connected through high speed trains. However, it’s not just the govt fault. When educational institutions and manpower are scattered across the country, why can’t big corporates also scatter their offices beyond these massive urban blocks, since Government has created infra and connectivity across small towns and cities?

@KaustubhRaizad @XPhyxer1 @chiragbarjatyaa Milk & milk products are major part of vegetarian diet. Besides that peas, Dal, Chana etc are enough for proteins or any kind of nutrition.

In villages milk & milk products, peanuts, lentils, peas etc are not expensive at all. They become expensive when processed, packed & transported to cities. In India malnutrition is mostly due to bad eating habits or extreme poverty. No one is malnourished where cows are in plenty. Just go and look at people in the villages of Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Western UP. Bad health is due to bad eating habits, diminished nutrition in food due to modern agri practices, processed oils, sugar, adulteration, lack of sunlight exposure, poison in food chain, lack of exercise. It is affecting people with both veg & non veg diets. One can have sufficient nutrition from a veg diet & the tall, tough, strong people of many predominant northern states are a testimony to it.

@CheapChanakya @chiragbarjatyaa You eat what you like. Let veg people have their protein from milk, paneer, nuts & stop trying to say that eggs are essential for nutrition.

@XPhyxer1 @chiragbarjatyaa For children & for adults who work out regularly, eating 100 g peanuts is no big deal & vegetarians can easily choose over eggs.
