‘Scientists too arrogant’

Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: The public consultation on commercialisation of Bt brinjal here on Saturday witnessed uproar after a scientist of the Indian Institute of Horticultural Research, Bangalore, said those who opposed the GM technology were interested in mobile technology and other things.

Minister of State for Environment and Forests Jairam Ramesh intervened and said: “I am sorry that a scientist spoke like this. I apologise to all of you. Scientists are too arrogant and they should speak with humility. Scientists should learn to be a little more humble.”
