The Haryana government Tuesday announced that it will inquire into the burning of genetically modified (GM) crops by protesting farmers near Karnal city.
Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda said that the incident of burning of the GM crops was unfortunate and it will be probed.
A group of farmers belonging to the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) Monday destroyed crops in a scientific farm at Raitpur village in Karnal district, about 100 km from here. They were opposing the field trial of the GM crops by Mahyco Company, the distributor of GM seeds.
The farmers said multinational companies were trying to destroy Indian seeds by bringing in GM seeds.
