Warned earlier about Jatropha and corruption through this online
article
'Most of the Jatropha promoters are talking about ten years plan for
Jatropha biodiesel project. Their primary aim is to plant Jatropha
in commercial scale. They are not much interested in Karanj because
there is no chances of purchase the plants. In many states where
Jatropha is under promotion the corruption in purchasing of Jatropha
is in peak. Most of the planners have to earn from Jatropha planting
material business. '
