- The socio-ethical legitimization of the
property rules which govern action
- Transformation of management towards a global
stakeholder model, and
- The building up of a coherent international
public policy process.
In international trade
and development circles a quiet but intense battle is
on. It is all about intellectual property —a term,
which generally covers patents, copyrights, trademarks,
and trade secrets.
Despite several unparalleled
and exemplary achievements made in the field of agriculture
in India since Independence, there is a consistent need
to maintain food security and growth in production so
that the future challenges are duly met, by constant
innovative research. Fruits of such research need to
be protected by legislation, and endeavor to prevent
piracy. One of such challenges, which is likely to grow
in unpredictable proportions in the near future, is
the understanding of, orientation for, and the application
of intellectual property protection under different
forms of intellectual property rights and as per different
IPR or sui generis legislations being in effect in the
country from time to time.
The national laws on
Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights are already in effect,
although these are undergoing further amendments in
harmony with the national requirements and /or international
commitments. Further, legislations on Geographical Indications
and Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers' Rights
have also been enacted, which await development/ notification
of respective subordinate Acts of Rules and Procedures
for their enforcement.
