ABOUT THE SEMINAR

Intellectual Property is the product of mind, which emanates primarily from human intellect, for
example, inventions, publications and other scholarly works. These proprieties can be protected
under the provisions of law through Copy Rights, Trade Marks, Patents, Plant Variety Protection/
Plant Breeders Rights, Geographical Indicators, Lay outs and Designs and Undisclosed
Information Provisions. Of late Protection of Plant varieties and Farmers Rights Act, 2001 has
also been implemented to protect the plant varieties developed by farmers.
The provisions under law have been defined to protect the IPRs under various categories,
and to check their infringements. In the economic competitive world numerous cases of IPR
infringements have been known globally. The offenders create ways and means to invent new
trends of infringements. Therefore, the IPRs law has to be dynamic, vibrant and well defined to
check the emerging trends of infringement. The proposed National Conference is therefore
based on the need and scope of law provisions to protect the IPRs. There are many issues that
need to be discussed to achieve the objectives of the Intellectual Property Laws. With this
background, the Faculty of Law is organizing one-day National Seminar, so as to foster
awareness, innovations and knowledge in the field of intellectual property rights and their
infringements law perspectives
