उत्तर

Bt cotton is made resistant to only certain specific taxa of pests. It is quite likely that in future, some other pests may infest these Bt cotton plants. It is similar to immunisation against smallpox which does not provide immunity against other pathogens like those that cause cholera, typhoid etc.
