Politicians in Delhi are no longer choosing only 5-star hotels for dining out, stand-alone niche restaurants are now the place to go politician spotting.
CSE, one of India’s oldest bourses, is edging towards a voluntary exit. It could never recover from market manipulation scam that caused a payment crisis at exchange back in 2001.
Fresh details of operation conducted by IAF, Army have come out in gazette notification giving citations of those who were awarded Vir Chakra for their bravery.
Education, reservations, govt jobs are meant to bring equality and dignity. That we are a long way from that is evident in the shoe thrown at the CJI and the suicide of Haryana IPS officer. The film Homebound has a lesson too.
if the author says any shit without proper research , it is freedom of speech. anybody else expresses a contrary opinion , it is racism, casteism, bigotry, narrow mindedness, etc etc,
Silly article written by one those ‘progressive liberals’ Consuming carrion -the decaying flesh of dead animals (meat that is not different at all from that of slaughtered animals) is an abomination; to eat the meat of dead creatures to augment one’s flesh and the feeling of repugnance being asked to sit with and watch a avid meat eater diving his/her knive and fork into a barely cooked piece of animal steak is perverse. Don’t talk caste nonsense it is a non starter. By the way I am not a vegetarian!
What a pathetic caste-racist this writer is. What does he think the rest of the world is doing moving towards vegetarian and vegan diets? Are they being influenced by “oppressive brahmism”?
Under any other guise except Hindu bashing, such obnoxious writing would be sanctioned for being racist and hateful. The writer has a big chip on his shoulder. He should get off his high horse stop “othering” some people and realise that such conceited and concocted divisiveness has no place in civil society.
How do Indians tolerate such nonsense? Imagine if a Brahmin were to write such stuff about the “other”?
Garbage. “Pure” vegetarian is used for a purpose. Since serving egg-based dishes may or may not be seen as vegetarian. Author hopelessly confuses commensality (Definition of commensality. plural -es. 1 a : the practice of eating together. b : a social group that eats together) and caste with veg, non-veg…and while you are at it why leave out the chic ‘vegan’?
Why does no vegetarian-meal serving restaurant abroad add the word ‘pure’?
Usually in countries apart from India, the practice of vegetarianism is not adopted because of religion or tradition in the family. It is more of a lifestyle choice made consciously as a mature adult. It is not a big deal if the bacon is being fried in the same pan as the gobi manchurian. But this is not acceptable for a significantly large group of people in India. And lastly, it is not just brahmins who are vegetarian and all brahmins are not vegetarian. This is truer now than ever. The word ‘pure’ just signifies that the restaurant does not cook any meat at all in its kitchen and trying to annotate an insidious cause to it is over reaching.
Am a vegan who prefers to eat at vegan restaurants abroad. Even in India I like to eat at ‘pure’ vegetarian restaurants because the word ‘pure’ indicates to me the restaurant does not serve eggs – which are part of many ‘vegetarian’ dies in India. Abroad I have eaten at restaurants where vegetarian dishes had fish and chicken and were cooked in beef fat. (I left leaving other baffled.) When the restaurant can assure that the same oil or spoons will not be used in vegetarian and chicken or egg dishes, it will calm me to a large extent but I know in India that it is not going to be the case.
Non-veg food smells. Eating together is fine. But as a vegetarian I would absolutely demand that the dining and serving area be kept separate for vegetarians and non-vegetarians. I don’t want to see a person sitting across sucking the marrow out of a chicken/mutton bone and keeping it aside. Fish skeleton is also a no-no for me. Even thinking about it makes me nauseous.
Reason is Parth has never travelled out of India. If you would try to research before you write you will find Vaishnav Dhaba 🙂 in all the countries east and southeast of India.
Humans being the most analytical and cerebrally pro-active amongst all fauna on this planet should wholeheartedly embrace vegetarianism as the most ethical route to survival. The suffering that takes places 24×7 in abattoirs across the world is as immoral, and needs to be immediately addressed just as any other liberal cause which includes NOT granting gay their rights and equal pay to women.
This article is shit n not even worth for comment’s let him go n have his non veg meal.

By the way, I too studies at IIT, Bombay.
Ridiculous article
