Acharya Prashant explains that while technical and management institutions like IITs and IIMs should not have veganism on their official agendas or enforce it institutionally, individuals within these institutions must develop their own code of ethics based on understanding and data. He emphasizes that being a technocrat or manager is secondary to being a conscious living person. He argues that veganism is not a cult or a fad but a demand of the current times, supported by compelling data that literate and sophisticated people should acknowledge. He draws a parallel between the exploitation of animals and historical injustices, such as slavery and the denial of rights to women and marginalized groups, noting that what was once considered normal is now seen as primitive.
