  1. Story 1 - A routine Uber ride in Washington DC, and an Afghani driver picks me up. After a few minutes, he asks me if I am Indian, and yes he smiles and his next question, do you know when somebody will make a movie on Modi. I am a little shocked, not at the movie suggestion but that he would know Modi. Anyway, I ask him why. His answer is that Modi is considered a magician in Afghanistan and Afghanis pray that they get a leader like him to make Afghanistan like India. Story 2 - My beloved coworker from Nigeria, Iteogu, starts every morning at work with a curse at the Nigerian President Buhari. Then gives me a baleful look and says, what do you care, you have Narendra Modi. Look where India is today. So, two completely random non-Indians, with no political agenda, want somebody like Modi to run their respective countries because they believe Modi can turn their fortunes around. Nobody has fed them propaganda. They simply see what India has become under Modi and how it’s international prestige has soared. I am not saying anybody is perfect, but in my 25 years in the US, I have never seen India receive so much attention and status as it has under Modi. You have to give credit where it is due. Haters will hate, but it is undeniably Modi’s magic, pure and simple! He has nailed it.

The earlier record was 1.5 cr which now stands broken. The punitive damages of 5 cr were given as charity to a local cancer hospital, though that was a nice gesture on the part of the plaintiff. However what is important is the fact that the Hon'ble Court has sent a clear message to all that IPR violation will not be tolerated and will be taken seriously ...... #intellectualproperty #commercial #brandprotection #trademarks #iprights …more
