Letters: Why attack Swaminathan? I

Business Standard may have a view on the National Advisory Council (NAC), or the supposed issue of power without responsibility. But an editorial dedicated to attacking an individual (M S Swaminathan) only displays personal bias and prejudice (“NAC vs government”, March 18). If Business Standard had a problem with Swaminathan’s views, it should have been discussed elsewhere in the paper, not in the editorial.

And when did Swaminathan become the “self-proclaimed” father of India’s Green Revolution ?
