Bhushan sends notice to biotech regulator on GM mustard

New Delhi, (PTI) Accusing GEAC of "serious non- governance" and undertaking an "underground process to hide its misdeed", lawyer-activist Prashant Bhushan today shot off a notice to the biotech regulator, asking it to make public the full biosafety dossier of GM mustard.

 

Noting that the risk assessment report put up by the Environment Ministry is of "limited value", the notice sent by Bhushan to Genetic Engineering Appraisal Committee (GEAC) chairman Amita Prasad also asked the regulator to provide a minimum time of 120 days for feedback on the report to allow independent scientists nationally and internationally to respond.
