An independent scientific analysis released by environmental organization Greenpeace India exposed major flaws in the Genetically Modified corn biosafety assessment process by the regulatory bodies in India. Greenpeace India had asked Testbiotech, an independent research agency, to assess data presented by the US biotech giant, Monsanto, to the Indian authorities ‘for biosafety tests prior to commercial approval’ of its GM corn variety MON89034xNK603 [...] The biosafety and field trials data of the said GM corn data was accessed by Greenpeace through RTI procedures from the Department of Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering Appraisal Committee, which is the nodal agency for all environmental releases of GMOs in India.
