Respected Sir,
It is most shocking Patents Grants are back to 1997 level In spite of well over 20 fold increase in Credits to Industry and MSMEs – then China was granting 4000 patents to India 2000 approx and our filings abroad were also in similar proportions 160 to 80.
China is now 1st in filing Patents/ IPR, 2nd in grants.
Patent grants to Indians declined 75% to 776 Patents in comparison resident grants in China were up from 31,945 to 122,347 Patents
since 2007after NKC Sam Pitroda made recommendations to boost R&D.
(Out of 776 Patents more than half are filed by CSIR, mostly bogus Process Patents, or SMEs,)
Foreign
grants are also down to a third – this means India Didn’t Promote
Indians IPRs Nor Let In Foreign Technologies – Imports Last Year Were
$485b, soon India may be Importing Every Manufactured Goods.
Since 1997 there 50 Times increase in Engineering Seats in Colleges.
