Jairam Ramesh’s decision to stall the commercial release of Bt brinjal is prudent. But when researchers endorse the use of this crop, the minister will be left with no option but to allow its cultivation. The present reaction is possibly a stopgap arrangement before anything certain can be said. If the damage done to consumers by Bt brinjal is the main reason for the agitation against it, then it is better to start campaigning against all the food items since most of them are adulterated.
Yours faithfully,
