As I recall, Rishikesh was the same in '73. No butchering or sale of meat. Not

Worldcrunch reports a historic change in Palitana, an Indian city, which has 
become the first all-vegetarian city in the world.

Behind this revolutionary change are monks who went on a hunger strike to 
pressure the state of Gujarat to outlaw animal slaughter in their city. The 
hunger strike was successful and the Gujarat government imposed a ban on animal 
slaughter and outlawed the sale of meat and eggs.
