The document discusses the debate around banning the pesticide endosulfan. While the EU and some other countries want to impose a global ban due to health and environmental concerns, India disputes the evidence against endosulfan and wants to resist a ban. Studies have linked endosulfan to health problems in areas where it was used, but India argues there is no scientific consensus and alternatives are too expensive. With many countries for and against a ban, there is no clear resolution on the global regulation of endosulfan.
