Sources of Seeds:
The best seeds you can get is from a farmer in the country side who is saving seeds.
All Major cities:
National Seed Corporation http://nsc.gov.in/regional-offices....
Seeds divided into vegetables/crops/horticulture : From experience seen that not all are available so connect with your local regional office and find out their own list http://nsc.gov.in/products.html These are not organically grown but what you may want to check is the “variety” seed which are open pollinated. You can further save them .
