The document discusses the development of biotechnology in India. It notes that biotechnology was first coined in 1919 and exploits biological processes to produce useful products. In 1986, the Government of India established the Department of Biotechnology to enhance biotechnology in India. Over the past decade, India has become a hub for biotechnology and attracted global investment due to its skilled workforce. Major milestones in the Indian biotechnology industry include the establishment of the first biotech firm in 1978 and the Department of Biotechnology in 1986. Today, over 350 biotech companies in India employ more than 20,000 scientists.
Introduction to Biotechnology in India-History and Evolution. Brief Discussion about Current scenario and scope of Biotechnology in India and top companies.
Creating or discovering a new life form by the use of genetic engineering sounds interesting.. but is it actually possible to patent life forms?

The advances of modern plant technologies, especially genetically modified crops, are considered to be a substantial benefit to agriculture and society. However, so-called transgene escape remains and is of environmental and regulatory concern. Genetic use restriction technologies (GURTs), developed to secure return on investments through protection of plant varieties, are among the most controversial and opposed genetic engineering biotechnologies as they are perceived as a tool to force farmers to depend on multinational corporations’ seed monopolies. In this work, the currently proposed strategies are described and compared with some of the principal techniques implemented for preventing transgene flow and/or seed saving, with a simultaneous analysis of the future perspectives of GURTs taking into account potential benefits, possible impacts on farmers and local plant genetic resources (PGR), hypothetical negative environmental issues and ethical concerns related to intellectual property that have led to the ban of this technology

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
