Are all people in India vegetarians?

In: India [Edit categories]

Answer:

No!
Perhaps why you may be confused:
Many Indians follow Hinduism, Buddhism, or Jainism. These religions stress the importance of nonviolence, so many followers will become vegetarian, and even sometimes vegan. Many areas of India are impoverished, another reason why many Indians do not eat meat on a regular basis.
