Goa wins most the 'vegan friendly' state award in 2020 by PETA India
12 November 2020
Goa has been awarded the Most Vegan-Friendly State for the year 2020 by PETA India. Goa has set an example for other states with many vegan eateries and restaurants with several vegan options. Moreover, there are several 100% cruelty-free clothing stores. Apart from that, Goa hosts many vegan events.
PETA India issued a statement which said that every person who goes vegan spares nearly 200 animals a year daily suffering and a terrifying death.
“In today’s meat, egg, and dairy industries, chickens’ throats are cut while they’re still conscious, fish suffocate on the decks of fishing boats, pigs are stabbed in the heart as they scream in pain, and calves are torn away from their mothers shortly after birth,” the statement said. “At the slaughterhouse, animals are often killed in full view of others and dismembered while they’re still conscious,” it added.
The Award was presented to Chief Minister Dr Pramod Sawant for creating an ecosystem to encourage vegan businesses to thrive. Goa might not seem like a vegan friendly place because of traditional Goan diet is high on meat, but goa is actually a Vegan Haven.
