2. BIO PIRACY
Intellectual Property Rights (IPR)
Intellectual property rights (IPR) refers
to the legal rights given to the inventor
or creator to protect his invention or
creation for a certain period of time.

4. What is Biopiracy?
The term “Biopiracy” is used to describe the
allocation of traditional knowledge of native
local communities for the beneficial uses of
locally originated resources, for the purpose
of generating commercial profits by the big
multinational companies.

6. It is the practice of exploiting
naturally occurring resources or
biochemical material in commerce,
usually without compensating the
Indigenous peoples or community
from which the material or relevant
knowledge is obtained.

7. Examples of Biopiracy
 Basmati Patent (Oryza Sativa Linn):
 The Basmati is a long, slender-grained, aromatic
variety of rice indigenous to the Indian
subcontinent. In the year 1997 the United States
Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) granted a
patent (No. 5663484) to a Texas-based American
business enterprise Rice Tec Inc for “Basmati rice
line and grains”.

9. A patent is a type of intellectual property
that gives its owner the legal right to
exclude others from making, using, or
selling an invention for a limited period of
time in exchange for publishing an
enabling disclosure of the invention.
What is Patent ?

10.  Indigenous peoples did not use their traditional
knowledge for commercial purposes. Therefore,
they were able to care for their traditional
knowledge without any damage over the past
centuries. But today, as biological and related
sources, knowledge becomes the source of the
most valuable assets in the financial market.
Although there are many legal frameworks
internationally and domestically to protect the
environment, due to the inadequacies of these
existing legal entities, environmental crime has
become one of the world's most serious
environmental problems

11. Conclusion of Biopiracy in Terms of
Indian Traditional Knowledge
 In order to be safeguarded from being plagiarised by
global giants that are stealing age-old Indian traditional
knowledge, India’s patent legislation need a broader
viewpoint. Construction of a Traditional Knowledge Digital
Library could be an effective method to counteract the
hijacking of our cultural bio-distinctiveness. Diversity’s
Developing countries, on the other hand, have become
increasingly vociferous in the international arena in recent
years. They have begun to collaborate with one another,
posing a barrier to industrialized countries. This would aid
developing countries in political negotiations with
developed countries and could aid in the resolution of the
biopiracy problem.
