The 2009 draft of the National Biotechnology Regulatory Authority Bill, [...] has already drawn severe criticism for failing to be transparent in its dealings. On Tuesday noted biosafety expert Vandana Shiva lashed out against two specific clauses. ”The bill says not only can we not make choices about our food but we can’t even speak about safety. We can be jailed and fined. That does not happen in a democracy! ”Finding out that for expressing your right to safe food, you can be thrown into jail is the highest level of terrorism and we will not allow the state to become a terrorist,” Shiva told reporters.
