India has become the testing ground for a whole range of GM crops. These include paddy, wheat, maize, mustard, okra even as testing for the controversial Bt brinjal continues.
Testing is being done by private universities, private crop developers and the National Agricultural Research System all of whom are testing these crops often without the consent of state governments, including Bihar, Kerala and Himachal Pradesh, who have openly expressed their reservations on GM crops.
