Rajasthan (India) withdraws permission for GM mustard trial

The Rajasthan Government has withdrawn its ‘no objection certificate’ given for conducting transgenic mustard field trial at an advanced stage. The Genetic Engineering Approval Committee has found fault with it for doing such a thing. The Department of Agriculture in Rajasthan have given the NOC for holding trials at three locations. But towards the end of the second season trial, the Government directed the research team to terminate them.
