your knowledge is very little. 1st: BJP supported the agreement. 2nd: Which companies rae standing. No company has their R & D (except those who had earlier). They are puchasing technology from US companies and mostly working as selling agent. 3rd: Why we had to change our patent act? Because of GATT. Price of medicine is going beyond the reach of the common people. 4rth: Why farmers are killing themselves? They are bound to purchase seed and fertiliser from the US ulinationals who are fixing the price very high. These seed are hybrid and you can't reuse it. You are bound two purchase every year. This is also due to GATT agreement.
