India and Indian have their inherent and very original difficulty to understand and adopt intellectual- 'property' aspects in life, because what ever devised by Indian sires or saints was for 'bahu jana hitaya' (for common good)and often the present Indians mix up a point that they inherit a brilliant tradition in which intellectuality is never conceived as a 'property'. As legends suggest, the famous temple of Lord Jagannath at Puri was built by Raja Indradyumna. And when pleased, the Lord Jagannath pompously appeared before the king and offered to seek boon of his desire, the king said: O Lord, bless as so that there would be none in my family to become a useless claimant of this grand deed. Aghast, the Lord persuaded, "No my child, ask for any mundane prosperity because you deserve the reward." The king did not agree. "Deeds are not done for reward, my God. What reward we offer to the Sun and the Moon and the Waves and the Wind? Do they do anything less for us?" Let this story end here. Fantasy for any artist of imagination is a pride for Indian. He needs just an opportunity. Let us not blame anybody for that nor conclude anything on the basis of an allegation (Rowling), because since values are different, perceptions are bound to vary. Let the court decide on this basis. Rabi Kanungo Intellectual Forum.
