As all the Hindus in my school were not vegetarians, I thought I will check on this.
Guess what 99% of Hindus are not vegetarians. Hindu observe Fridays as the day to avoid meat. Only the Brahmins tend to be vegetarians and its a tiny sect. The Brahmins dominate the upper echelon of society and commerce in India, and others in recent years tend to emulate them and will behave as vegetarians.
As one pundit told me, if the whole of India were vegetarians, the Brahmins will eat meat to show their exclusiveness.
