    NEW DELHI: Centre on Sunday refuted Congress’s allegations regarding irregularities in organic cotton certification, calling the remarks unfounded and misleading.The commerce ministry said the aspersions cast against National Programme for Organic Production (NPOP) were baseless and unwarranted.“Generalised allegations against a robust regulatory system of the country for a particular crop/region/group of operators only serve to undermine the credibility of legitimate regulatory institutions and the broader organic movement in India,” the ministry said in a statement.Congress on Saturday demanded a court-monitored CBI probe into an alleged scam in the sale of normal cotton as organic cotton in MP.Former MP CM Digvijaya Singh alleged India’s image is being hurt globally as the country has lost credibility in certification of organic products.
