A free footwear scheme for some of the poorest in Madhya Pradesh has been suspended after a research institute's report that the shoes were lined with a potential cancer-causing chemical. The Charan Paduka Yojana was launched with much fanfare for tendu leaf farmers in the state ahead of elections due later this year.
