HC sought Centre's stand on a plea for labelling “all items” used by the public, including home appliances and apparel, as “vegetarian” or “non-vegetarian”
The Delhi High Court on Thursday sought the Centre's stand on a plea for labelling “all items” used by the public, including home appliances and apparel, as “vegetarian” or “non-vegetarian” on the basis of their ingredients and “items used in manufacturing process”.
A bench headed by Justice Vipin Sanghi observed that everyone has the right to know and follow their belief and asked the Central Government to “seriously examine” the plea by Ram Gaua Raksha Dal — a trust working towards the welfare of cows — which claims that there are certain “non-vegetarian” products that are unknowingly used or consumed by those professing vegetarianism due to absence of proper disclosures.
