Health effects
The
Food and Agriculture Organization of United Nations has concluded that long-term intake of
residues of endosulfan from uses that have been considered by the JMPR is unlikely to present a public health concern.
Endosulfan is one of the most toxic pesticides on the market today, responsible for many fatal pesticide poisoning incidents around the world.
[34] Endosulfan is not a
xenoestrogen—a synthetic substance that imitates or enhances the effect of
estrogens—and there is no evidence that it can act as an
endocrine disruptor, causing reproductive and developmental damage in both animals and humans, although this has been claimed. Whether endosulfan can
cause cancer is debated but experimental tests showed it was not (see POPRC, UNEP).
Every state has similar complaints against the central govt. that it give step motherly treatment. Does this mean every state should get separate from India?
ReplyDeleteJust like the central govt's fund does not reach where it is intended to reach, the state govt. fund also does not reach the districts and villages. Funds from district HQs does not reach tehsils so on and so forth..
Within a family one sibling complains that s/he is given a step motherly treatment.
Does it mean that the family, a district a state should all break-up thinking that they would prosper without each other???
