In the course of my research work I came across some fascinating facts.
The Patent Act that we followed in India was British Era act for patents and designs first came into existence in 1856.
Last amendment to act was done in 1911. Obviously it was done by the British. #History

Guess when did India get it’s first properly amended Intellectual Property Act ?
In 1999 under then Vajpayee Government. Imagine it took 88 years and nearly 52 independent years to formulate our own IPR laws. Talk about Indian innovators losing to world

One of the major amendments to the act was done recently on 2017. And guess who’s Government? @narendramodi Government made that important change for safeguarding well known Brands.
Which means the Congress government always sleeps on important ideas.

Now coming to the famous GI or Geographical Indication act. The famous Bengali vs Oriya Roshogulla fight was recently settled with this.
India did not have a GI Act till recently. No prizes to guess who formulated the Act. 15 Sept 2003, the Vajpayee Govt established the Act.

As on date 370 items have been listed and awarded GI giving them a worldwide edge in business and exports. All the idiots who abuse NDA and BJP government to be Sanghi and fascists have no idea that many of the actual governance issues were taken care of by them.
I am so upset that India lost the opportunity to re elect Vajpayee ji in 2004. All the good work that he did with Highways etc went unnoticed. How different it would have shaped our country had he been re-elected!
