MANGALORE: The Small Industries Service Institute, Bangalore, conducted a sensitisation programme on `Intellectual property rights' (IPR) in Mangalore on Monday.

Dr T. Ramakrishna, Additional Professor of Law, National Law School of India University, Bangalore, who was the resource person, allayed fears about the new patent regime. He said it all depends on how effectively Indians use international treaties on IPR for their advantage. The country can't afford to remain outside international regulations on IPR, he said.

The President of Kanara Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Mr A. Srinivas Rao, who inaugurated the programme, said that detailed discussions should be held at all levels before implementing the new Patent Act. Mr R. Sampathkumar, Deputy Director of Small Industries Service Institute, welcomed the gathering.
