akshita.prakash@hindustantimes.comThe fight for both environmental protection and a healthier lifestyle led to the launch of the Veganuary movement in 2014. This movement, which first originated in the UK, encouraged people to take part in a 31-day challenge in January and adopt a vegan diet. The idea was to raise awareness around vegan lifestyle and its beneficial impacts. Since then many people, including those in India, are increasingly leaning towards a vegan lifestyle. According to Prashanth Vishwanath, country director for India for NGO Veganuary, over 1,28,000 Indians participated in Veganuary movement last year.
