A group campaigning for a ‘GM-free’ India has written to the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India, asking it to crackdown on sale of all genetically modified food in Indian supermarkets and initiate prosecution against those violating the law. The GM foods are not permitted to be sold under the Indian FSSA. In a letter to the CEO and Chairman of FSSAI, the Coalition for a GM-free India said that certain brands of imported packaged food are openly being sold.
