The majority of the truth
The majority of the truth
Ok, one article from Ashwin Mahesh that I actually agree with. I would certainly welcome more news and reporting on agriculture from our newspapers, except that our journalists will have another area in which to show their ignorance and incompetence :-(
I agree with the fact that not enough testing has been done on genetically modified crops to make a clear statement that they are safe to use. But as is usually the case in India, rules and regulations are flouted with disdain. These GM crops like cotton should have not been widely available (if what is mentioned in the article is true) without extensive testing in controlled conditions.
But I disagree with the fact the a leftist government or leftist support at the centre is the answer. Indian commies have been, remain and will always be bereft of ideas. All they have are sloganeering skills and their slogans are increasingly getting irrelevant in today's world.
