Krishan Guptaa says, We at ORGANIC INDIA totally believe in our culture. We have realised the importance of using authentic organic products. We started with Tulsi tea as Tulsi is the queen of herb and then added total range of formulations, spices and commodities with the latest addition being Desi Ghee from Tension free cows and Chaywanprash.

People need to take responsibility of their own health. The focus must shift from drugs / medicines to a natural way of living. Recourse to drug should be taken only in extreme cases. I feel the key is to start including it in schools to catch young minds. Teach them the right basics and not get their minds corrupt towards use of drugs / medicines instead taking health in their own hands. I feel this is the right way forward and doesnt require any investment from government, says Krishan Guptaa. Technology could play an important role in ensuring that people start living in a natural way in India and across the world.  Government should have good education system for our schools so that they learn the basics of Indias wisdom of over 5000 years and feel proud of our history while industry need to produce only authentic products so that they are effective to develop trust of the consumers on our ancient wisdom which we lost and started aping the west.
