==========
Comments: Go through this research paper from the researchers of
Indian state Orissa published in year 2006. In this paper they have
warned that poisonous plants can cause much damage to public health.
Jatropha curcas is one of these plants. According to this paper sap
of Jatropha causes irritation in skin and eyes and seeds are having
carcinogenic properties.

Common natives as well as Indian researchers are regularly
publishing research findings about negative aspects of Jatropha. But
ignoring it the planners are in hurry to make India as 'Jatropha
land.'
