Decision to seek info from Bangladesh on effect of Bt Brinjal commercial release unacceptable: Activists
Anti-genetically modified (GM) crop activists have raised concern over the recent decision of India's biotech regulator GEAC to seek information from Bangladesh on the effect and impact of commercial release of Bt Brinjal, and said it is completely "unacceptable".
The GEAC decided this while hearing a request made by M/s Mahyco Pvt Ltd seeking permission for large-scale environmental release and demonstration of Bt Brinjal. Image source: Reuters
