On the day of Gandhi Smriti, consumers, farmers, youth and scientists in Bangalore observed a day of hunger fast expressing their unwillingness to accept Bt Brinjal. Genetic Engineering Approval Commoittee (GEAC) approval of Bt Brinjal in October without proper tests has caused national outrage among independent scientists, consumers, farmers and civil society groups.
Vegetable buyers who came to the Chennai’s T.Nagar vegetable market on Thursday were greeted by a rare sight of live brinjals talking to them about the need to save the ‘real’ brinjal.
The anti-Bt Brinjal awareness drive kicked off at Futala Lake in Nagpur on Sunday. The entire idea was to do something to make people take notice of the issue and attend the consultations scheduled on 27th January.
On 19th January we held a public engagement activity at the Erragadda Rythu Bazaar. This is one of the biggest vegetable markets in Hyderabad and buyers and vendors flock this market in large numbers everyday.
