I strongly believe that there are chances to be used and misused by people with vested interest. At this age fragility also creeps in. I advise him to give full rest and allow young scientists to shape the future of humanity. I could see him trying to present himself and allowing others to his name. The apetite for fame is never ending. There is danger of losing his relevance. The country is overcoming the culture of personality cult.

Dr Swaminathan has impeccable scientific credentials and a star studded-career, undiminished by our disagreements with him over the so-called Green Revolution and its impacts. Yet the global GM and agrochemical companies, CropLife, and establishment science now denigrate and brow beat him into retraction, silence and toeing their line on Genetic Manipulation or its products. These bullies viciously discredit anyone who dares to debate the merits of GM, despite its known hazards, risks and costs. Vandana Shiva, Arpad Pusztai, Ignacio Chapela, the IARC Committee of the UN, and a host of other scientists have had their sound scientific work unfairly pilloried. Bullying is not a rational or acceptable way to advance science and innovation and it should stop.
