1.      NEW DELHI: Recent deaths of farmers due to pesticide poisoning in Yavatmal and other districts of Maharashtra have opened up a debate over the rationale of using all such pesticides in India which are either banned or restricted elsewhere in the world due to their high toxicity.
……..
2.      The think-tank said that the pesticides such as Monocrotophos, Oxydemetonmethyl, Acephate and Profenophos were believed to be responsible for the deaths and illness in Maharashtra. Pesticides like Monocrotophos and Oxydemeton-methyl are considered Class-I pesticides by the World Health Organisation (WHO). "Since Class-I pesticides can be fatal at a very low dose, many of these are banned in several countries", said the CSE, seeking a proper mechanism on pesticide use in India.

4.      Amrit Bindra: Count corruption as the eighth deadly pesticide!
5.      Tarun Sinha Commented: 
(i)           Anything Goes in India. India is more hungry than North Korea in Hunger Index, but Government wants to build Gigantic Statues of Patel, Shivaji and Lord Ram. And a Bullet Train.
(ii)               A Joke of a country, truly. Even British would be appalled at the incompetence. Churchill said 70 years back-"If Independence is granted to India, power will go to the hands of rascals, rogues, freebooters; all Indian leaders will be of low calibre and men of straw.
(iii)             They will have sweet tongues and silly hearts.
(iv)             They will fight amongst themselves for power and India will be lost in political squabbles."
SADLY WE HAVE PROVED HIM RIGHT”.
