Hello

Gandhiji was born in a vegetarian family, but it was only in London where he had gone to pursue his higher studies, he inculcated vegetarianism as a part of his not just his lifestyle but also a greater political cause, he regularly attended the meetings of London Vegetarian Society for which its member had found inspiration from India only, he was deeply influenced by this faith which further got strengthened even in the time to come, inculcating vegetarian was for ethical reasons at the same time it was a huge part of political ideology such as non-violence, injustice, inequility etc.
