RSS-Affiliated Farmer Body Demands Denotification of Bt Cotton Seeds in India

The RSS-affiliated Bharatiya Kisan Sangh (BKS) has demanded the denotification of Bt cotton seeds (BG-I and BG-II) and a ban on all GM crops in India. BKS general secretary Mohini Mohan Mishra alleged that Bt cotton adoption in 2002 led to a decline in production, pest resistance, and loss of indigenous varieties. The demand comes as US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer visits India for FTA discussions, with GM crops a key issue. BKS also highlighted falling cotton prices after the government abolished 11% import duty until October 31.
