The group of Hindus demanding money from a restaurant so they can go to India to cleanse themselves after accidentally eating meat is the most ridiculous thing I have heard ("Hindus given meat in restaurant mix-up," July 19).
First, why strict vegetarians would go to a place called Moghul Express is beyond my comprehension, as anyone from India can tell you that Moghul cuisine is basically nonvegetarian. Second, being a Hindu myself (though not a vegetarian), I have never heard of having to go to the Ganges River because of something accidentally going wrong. These people just want a free vacation.
If they really want to do something, they can donate to an animal charity, go to the nearest temple and pray, keep a fast with only lime water that will cleanse their body and mind.
And if that is not enough, go and take a dip in the Ganges next time they visit India with their own money.
