Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal on Tuesday said India has never allowed imports of any genetically modified (GM) products and would not do so in the future, as it is a “very sensitive” issue.
Addressing students of Kirori Mal College here, Goyal also said that dairy sector is “very sensitive” in the country and India has never given any duty concessions in any free trade agreement in this sector.
“We are very sensitive to opening up to certain agricultural produce, certain goods that we are very strong on like marine products. We are very sensitive to opening our dairy. In fact, till date, we have never opened up dairy for anybody.
