The European Union has funded Delhi-based Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) with 56 crore for catalysing the formation of pressure group against a popular pesticide, endosulfan!!
The evidence has been collected through RTI (Right to Information) by Federation of Indian Farmers Organisations (FIFO).
FIFO has also demanded a Central Bureau of Investigation probe into CSE's sources of funding and its work.
75 million Indian farmers use endosulfan because it is very effective and economical.
FIFO, which is headquartered in New Delhi, is promoted by India's major farmers' groups like Bhartiya Krishak Samaj, Confederation of Kisan Organisations, Rashtriya Kisan Sangathan, Gujarat Farmers Federation, All India Vegetable Growers Association, Bhartiya Kisan Union, and All India Medicinal Plants Association.
NGOs are known for the good work they do but they rarely receive support from Government . This incident will spoil the image of NGOs.
But the main question here is "WHY" , Why did the European union do that??!!
