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.

Television images showed some queues in Cairo and else where polling stations opened. President Mohammed Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood have campaigned heavily in favour of the constitution.
Opponents say it is poorly drafted and too Islamist. This round of voting takes place in Cairo, Alexandria and eight other provinces, a week before the rest of the country. Some 250,000 security personnel have been deployed.
More than 51 million people are registered to vote. Polling had to be spread out because few judges were willing to supervise the referendum. Human Rights groups have expressed fears that results from the first round could sway the opinion of those voting in the second.
