      The court ruled that all commercial propagation of golden rice and Bt eggplant must be stopped until “the concerned respondent government agencies submit proof of safety and compliance with all legal requirements”

      You’ll note this news has no mention of Greenpeace.

      We can’t know that as the linked document is just the outcome.

      If someone can find the actual ruling maybe more can be gleaned from it.

      Most likely this is hysterics and anti-scientific pandering.
