November 25 is the birthday of saint Vaswani. This spiritual head of this foundation is a staunch believer of treating all living creatures equally. Thus, as a mark of respect, several people from different walks of life commit that they will refrain from consuming meat and any form of non-vegetarian food. Thus, this day is also known as World Vegetarian Day in several parts of the world.
