SC to Begin Hearing Pleas in April Against GM Mustard's Release
Hindustan Times East UP
|March 08, 2025
A three-judge bench of the Supreme Court will begin hearing next month a clutch of petitions challenging the permission given for commercial cultivation of genetically modified (GM) mustard, after the approval granted by the Centre for its environmental release ended up in a split verdict by the top court in July 2024.
NEW DELHI:
"Files are too many in this case. Once we sit, we will continue and finish off the hearing. We don't want any discontinuation in the hearing of the case," a bench comprising justices Abhay S Oka, Sudhanshu Dhulia and Ujjal Bhuyan said, while setting the dates for the hearing to April 15 and 16.
