Is Organic Tea safer than Conventional Tea?

Is Tea free from Pesticides?
Is Organic Tea safer then Conventional Tea?
My submission is that all agricultural produce need to be protected with pesticides, at various stages of cultivation / harvest / post harvest.
Tea too is an agricultural product, and is not an exception.
Tea Plantations are nurtured by highly skilled workers, and vigilant managers, and all the activities are done in the most scientific manner, supported by scientific bodies, supported by respective Governments.
An organic farm will not use anything synthetic or chemical, but will surely need to use biological pesticides / formulations. Organic Teas are relatively safe, but can you be sure about the water or the sugar or the milk in your cup of tea?
Its all subjective, and a matter of debate, but the bottom line is:-
Tea is safer than water.
Brew it fresh, and sip in leisure.
Jayesh.
