World’s first city where non-veg is illegal

Palitana, in Gujarat's Bhavnagar, became the world's first city where non-veg is illegal after Jain monk protests closed 250 butcher shops. This honors Gandhi's vegetarian vow and aligns with regulations in Rajkot and Junagadh. Endorsed by Chief Minister Patel for traffic reduction and public sensitivities, Gujarat's vegetarianism intertwines with Vaishnavism and changing consumption patterns.
