Went vegan after I delivered my baby and realized the importance of my milk for my own baby. Understood that every mammal makes milk only after delivery of their child and only for their own child. By consuming animal milk, I was doing injustice to both cows and calves.

How could drinking milk ever be equal to eating meat?
Well all mammals produce milk only after delivering a baby, just like we humans.
And stupid me! Took me 28 years of my life to even give a thought to it that cows (just like humans) are mammals too, who produce milk only after delivering a child and the milk is only for their babies (just like the other 6000 odd mammals on planet earth).This one thought opened the floodgates for veganism and after researching thoroughly about how the dairy industry / farms really function, there was no going back. First hand visited more than 50 dairy farms in and around Bangalore to come to the hard reality that due to our dairy consumption cows are reduced to mere commodities who are enslaved, impregnated, tortured, abused and eventually either abandoned or slaughtered once they are no longer “profitable” to the industry.
Being a vegetarian by birth, dairy products was an everyday thing, paneer was Bae. But that was it, there was then never a thought of going back because I wouldn’t want on to the animals what I wouldn’t want onto my loved ones or myself.
So going vegan was the right decision ????
