Evidence-Driven GM Policies Needed to Burst Myths

Insights, Agriculture, Food, Nutrition Security and Rural Development, Public Policies, Programs and Schemes, Science and Technology

Scientific policy-making should be solely based on valid evidence and scientific merit and not be driven by a stand either for or against GM crops. Foremost is the task of allaying the fears surrounding GM mustard so that everybody can be part of this revitalized ‘yellow revolution’ without any ambiguity.

Disastrous decade for data
he daunting challenges concerning data posed by the CAA-NPR-NRC debate have been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and Recession. The reluctance of the government to release official data needs to be resolved urgently. As India unlocks, postponement of NPR and only doing the first phase of the 2021 census work will be a logical step to ensure that the census does not suffer from the limited window during which the entire work is expected to be completed.
