'The India Story', also titled 'The India Story: Slow Poison', is a powerful socio-national drama that critically examines the rampant and dangerous misuse of chemicals, focusing particularly on pesticide use in farming and the resulting controversies. The film raises pressing questions about public health, safety standards, and the glaring gaps in the regulatory framework meant to safeguard citizens.
