GMO Debate

The line between vegetarianism and non-vegetarianism has become blurred due to the push for genetically-modified foods in India. More than 9,000 school and college students in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, launched a campaign to end GM trials on okra, cauliflower, cabbage, potato, and corn modified with animal genes. The plight against genetically modified foods not only helps re-establish true vegetarianism, but also ensures food safety for consumers concerned about the long-term effects.
