On April 7, 2006, the Government of India amended the Foreign Trade (Development & Regulation) Act of 1992 governing rules on import of genetically modified crops [1]. As per the amendment, imports of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) for food, feed or processing, industrial processing, research and development for commercialization or environmental release would be allowed only with the approval of the Genetic Engineering Approval Committee (GEAC).

 

 

Friends:

 

On GM seeds, our people have only one choice. Follow Gandhiji's footsteps and burn the GM seeds. That will send a message to our Government as well as to WTO.
