Abstract
Agricultural biotechnology has the potential to advance crop productivity production enhancement and improve food security at global level. There is a growing alarm about the genetically engineered crops and its environment effects on food chain. Though, acceptance of such technologies has consequences, there is need for creating biosafety regulatory systems to decrease and eradicate possible potential risks arising from agricultural biotechnology on flora and fauna. India, as a party to the Convention on Biological Diversity and Cartagena Protocol, has acquired the responsibility of strengthening her biosafety structure very sincerely. The present chapter points a relative lesson of the accessible national and international biosafety frameworks in place in India, with the UNEPGEF Framework implemented across 126 countries. The intention of this chapter is to categorize confrontations within the system and possibilities how to minimize the risk of genetically modified organisms to the society.
