One must know:

  • IPR has emerged as a key ingredient of an ecosystem which stimulates innovation and ingenuity.
  • India has always been a knowledge hub since ancient times, but due to lack of awareness on modern legal framework for protection of IP rights, nation's knowledge and creativity have often not been utilised to its full potential.
  • Spreading awareness about IPR will help in promoting culture of innovation and creation of Intellectual Property.
  • Defence Ministry has established IP Facilitation Cell in April 2018 to achieve ambitious targets of training 10,000 personnel of OFB and DPSUs on IPR and facilitate filing of at least 1,000 new IPR applications.
