Vashi2Panvel.com: Navi Mumbai: March 21: I like eating Fish, Chicken, Mutton, Goat's brain, eggs etc. But today, after visiting an animal slaughter house in Sector 9, Vashi , I have taken an oath to never ever eat any non-vegetarian food again. The chickens were kept in unhygenic places, they were thrown like muddy footballs into their cages and there were innumerable flies siting and roaming on them.

I saw a sweet black goat taking rounds near me. An unhygenic man came and pulled the goat by its ears, pushed it to the place of being slaughtered and cut its neck with an uncleaned knife. This goat was NOT fully killed. Just half cut to show a customer that its a 'taaza maal' ( freshly cut peice). The goat bled non-stop and moved in pain ahead and back.

I was always taught that non-vegetarian foods khane se strong hote hai. Our body gets vitamins and minerals. But damn, at what cost? Someone else's life, impurities and harmful germs come free along with it, its just that we are not informed about this.

After visiting the slaughter house ( I urge you to go too, at least once to see how Goats, Chickens and other animals we eat are kept, handled and cut to serve), I take an oath that I will never ever order for any non-vegetarian food in future.

Vegetarian foods have great variety. They have all the Vitamins and Minerals that I need to survive for long. I know I'm on my way to good health now.

Madhu Ahuja, Vashi.
