<p>Hi ,<br /><br />I just signed a petition asking Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to stop the Biotechnology Regulatory
Authorityof India (BRAI) Bill from being passed.<br /><br /> This bill will create a body which will single-handedly
clearall genetically modified (GM) crops. Public opposition made the Karnataka government ban field trials of GM crops
inthe state recently. Now we need to get the national government to stop this bill. <br /><strong>You should ask Prime
MinisterManmohan Singh to stop the dangerous BRAI bill too:</strong><br /><br /><a

willplace genetically modified (GM) food on our plates, without our knowledge.<br /><br /> The Biotechnology Regulatory
Authorityof India <strong>(BRAI) bill</strong> can be tabled anytime in this monsoon session of Parliament. The bill,
whichis not even public, is being pushed in a <strong>hasty and secretive</strong> fashion. According to an earlier
versionleaked by the media, the bill will create a centralised non transparent body which will become the sole approver
forGM crops. <sup>[1]</sup><br /><br /> By being secretive, the <strong>government</strong> is only
<strong>creating</strong>more <strong>suspicion</strong> about the intention of the bill. <strong>Public
opposition</strong>helped stop Bt Brinjal, last year.<sup>[2]</sup> Now we need to get the national government to stop
thisbill and save our food.<br /><br /><strong>You should ask Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to stop this bill because
itis not transparent.</strong><br /><br /><a class="contentlink"

peopleagainst GM crops in Karnataka made the government declare a ban on the field trials of GM crops in the state.
<sup>[3]</sup>This can be achieved again. Support from lakhs of people will help put <strong>pressure on</strong> the
<strong>PM</strong>to stop this bill.<br /><br /> The last known draft of the <strong>bill</strong> had a clause which
allowedBRAI to <strong>escape</strong> the purview of <strong>Right to Information</strong>.<sup>[4]</sup> If the bill
ispassed as is, we will not be able to stop <strong>genetic modification of 56 other crops</strong> in the
pipeline.<p>Askthe PM to <strong>stop this bill</strong> now!<p><a class="contentlink"
