    "content": " The President has been hardly in office for six weeks. When he called a Cabinet meeting of the Cabinet Secretaries and unbanned the use of the GMO, there was absolutely no review and no explanation given as to why 10 years ago, it was bad and banned, but that decision has been reversed. There has been no public debate, no discussion, no engagement and, therefore, the use of GMO is something that is so important that it cannot be left to the President, a Cabinet of some few Cabinet Secretaries or to any other person. It is something that concerns all of us and we should engage and debate and also ask the difficult questions. Why do we unban it now? What is the reason for it? It sounds very fishy, smelly and stinking in some ways because it appears as if there is an attempt to use the problem of drought in our country as a pretext to bring these particular crops through the back door.
