Genetically modified organisms, it’s trial in India need to be reconsidered keeping in view the developed countries response. Is India & Indian are being used as guinea pig for GMO test. Is our govt regulatory bodies are doing there job carefully or simply they are being used by billion dollor MNC who can have their way just on monetry & not scietific ground.In interest of Nature & humanity lets not do anything which we have to repent latter on as have been with Parthenium weed. Nature has no boundary so in log run it is going to affect world as a whole not any particular country or region or person. So there is still need of debate on such issue.

Molecular biologists agree that “transgenic crops and their products are at least as safe for humans and the environment as crops developed by conventional methods”. “Moreover, some scientists and physicians also have negative attitudes towards GM crops, even though scientific risk assessments have proven that they cause no adverse health effects”. Want to know some of the reasons? One can go through the following article:
Genetically modified abominations? Widespread opposition to GMOs might have deep-seated cultural causes. EMBO reports (2009): 10, 1187 – 1190.
