That and most of India's population are not big meat eaters, partly out of relegious principles and poverty in some parts, but also because their veggie dishes are a damn sight tastier than most.
I used to live behind an Indian restaurant and had to walk by it everyday! Talk about torture! Their BBQ chicken was the best. They also had imported their baking ovens for their bread. I don't remember the name, but it is flat bread with garlic butter.
