The BJP-run South Delhi Municipal Corporation has passed a proposal that says the display of non-vegetarian food items in public by restaurant owners should be prohibited. This is after complaints from vegetarian people who say they feel nauseous when they smell non-vegetarian food. Apparently, it offends them as well. The SDMC also stated hygiene concerns. On The Buck Stops Here, we ask: what's the real story behind this decision to not allow non-veg food to be cooked or showed outside restaurants? Is this vegetarian vigilantism? Is this a municipal corporation essentially curbing our lifestyle?
