Bioterrorism is a realistic threat to the security and well-being of all countries. Significant legal and biodefence measures must be taken to prevent the production and use of deadly biological weapons. Previous bioterror incidences, dense population and congenial climatic conditions of India, make it vulnerable to bioterrorism threats.
