A confusion occurred among Political circles today(15) over a Special Cercular issued by the Pesticide Registrar General on 11 th of Julu stating the lifting of the Ban imposed on Using of Glyphosate for all crops.

As many have criticized the circular including the Minister of Health And Cabinet Co -Spokesman Dr.Rajitha Senaratne,The Pesticide Registrar General is due to issue another Circular this week to assure that the Glyphosate Ban will be lifted only for Tea and Rubber crops.

As per a request made by Minister of Crops Navin Dissanayake the Glyphosate Ban will be not affected to Tea and Rubber from this year.

Meanwhile Cabinet Co-Spokesman Dr.Rajitha Senaratne has stated that the Cabinet had lifted the ban on Glyphosate which was implemented in 2015 for all crops, only for Tea and Rubber.

No one can  take decisions by violating the Cabinet Decisions Minister has stressed.
