BT Brinjal

The cutting-edge technology of BT brinjal has had an unintended consequence. The public outrage that followed the regulatory clearance of the first ever GM food crop has forced environment minister Jairam Ramesh to adopt an innovation in public administration. The issue acquired greater traction as eight state governments came out against BT brinjal, in varying forms and degrees. Some farmers argued that commercialization of Bt Brinjal and its use could impact the life-span of consumers. Bt Brinjal might not result in economic gain as multinationals would attempt to cash in on the trend.

Brinjal in its varied shapes and colours is said to have originated in India. Opponents of BT brinjal, therefore, contend that genetic engineering should not be allowed in the “centre of origin” as it could lead to the loss of original varieties by transgenic cross-pollination. BT brinjal is fatal to a pest called fruit and shoot borer, some scientists question the premise that the Bt gene acts only in the alkaline environment found in the gut of insects.
