  • Advocate Prashant Bhushan, counsel for Rodrigues, says a vast majority of bio-safety tests, which are required before such crops are allowed for safe release into the environment, are not being conducted.

    The application has also underlined the need for having an independent testing laboratory with adequate technical capacity.
