About MNLU Aurangabad

Maharashtra National Law University, Aurangabad (MNLU Aurangabad, MNLUA) is a National Law University in Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India.

It was established in 2017 by the Government of Maharashtra, the third and final university to be installed through the Maharashtra National Law University Act, 2014, following Maharashtra National Law University, Mumbai, and Maharashtra National Law University, Nagpur, the 21st National Law University in India.

Concept Note for the Virtual Seminar on Surrogacy

It is a natural human desire to have one’s progeny, and thereby the concept of marriage and reproduction took birth in society. Different religions have different notions of marriage in their laws. For some religions, the base of marriage is spirituality, and for some, the objective of marriage is to reproduce. Indirectly or directly, the objective of all religions is to have a child who will be supporting the couple in their old age. 

However, in modern times and competitive era, married couples find it difficult to have their own babies either because of biological reasons or socioeconomic reasons. Therefore, in order to fulfill this desire of infertile couples, some religions keeping in view spiritual obligations have adopted the notion of adoption. However, this frustrates their basic urge to have their progeny, making them difficult to fulfill their religious aspirations and personal desires. 

To fulfill this desire, in this modern world, medical science has now developed to the extent of making available some mechanisms like IVF, Test tube baby, surrogacy, etc., thereby making it possible for such couples to fulfill their desire of having their progeny. Such medical advancements have become more popular in the competitive era where people’s focus has been more on employment and personal autonomy, thereby making it easy for them to have work-life balance. Statistics show that 25,000 children in India were born out of surrogacy as it has gained popularity, and India being a developing country with less GDP has become an easy target for surrogacy. 

Surrogacy conceptually and practically has several dimensions, and it involves an interplay of all disciplines such as law/medicine/taxation/commerce/morality/religion/human rights/social connotation/economic implications/human trafficking, etc. To address all these disciplines and thereby explore the concept of surrogacy, it is required for the academicians, stakeholders, and industry people to come together, form a forum, and discuss the concept in the interest of justice.  Furthermore, India is heading towards its own surrogacy bill, and academic discourse of such nature is required to be there to exchange ideas and inputs. 

Therefore, we at MNLUA are privileged to organize a 2-day virtual Multi-disciplinary Seminar on Surrogacy to revisit the concept of Surrogacy and shed light on the economic, social, religious, legal, and psychological aspects of surrogacy.

About Shankarrao Chavan Law College

To nurture future lawyers with the ideals and values required for playing a constructive role to create a better world, in 2003, Shankarrao Chavan Law College was established.

About Intellectual Property Rights Cell (IPR Cell)

SCLC has established the Intellectual Property Rights Cell to create awareness about these rights and sensitize students about their importance.

It provides a platform to share and discuss the latest developments in the area of IPR and their applications with practical exposure to students, faculty members and research scholars.

About the Conference

Intellectual property rights refer to the privileges given to the inventor, creator, or an organization to protect their innovation for their exclusive use rights for a certain period. Their Importance arises from the encouragement and the financial aid to stimulate creativity in the field of modern sciences and technology. Several amendments were made to the Intellectual Property Rights Laws considering the impact of socio-economic and technological developments.

However, despite these amendments, there has been a consistent increase in violations of IPR in the form of music piracy, software piracy, linking, caching, framing, digital databases and plagiarism, etc., and these violations adversely affect the economy.

Additionally, counterfeiting of trademarks in cyberspace and cybersquatting is increasing day by day, and without stringent provisions, these issues will not be resolved. Trade secret or undisclosed information protection is one of the challenges companies or businesses face in the absence of concrete legal provisions.

Further, the Patent Amendment Act 2005 introduced process and product patents in food, chemical, and pharmaceutics; however, there is a need to balance conflicting claims of access to medicine and exclusive right over patents in compulsory licenses.

This peculiar imbalance has resulted in a reluctance to grant compulsory licenses, evident from fewer licenses permitted even in medical emergencies. IPR has environmental implications as well.

Patent Law has always been criticized for environmental pollution, greenhouse effects, and climate change, and there is an urgent need to revisit the provisions in the light of sustainable development. Growing unauthorized commercial use of traditional knowledge makes indigenous communities more vulnerable, and in the absence of comprehensive law at the international level, it isn’t easy to protect these resources.

Further, biotechnological inventions and their impact on the environment need to be reviewed, considering Laws on Climate Change and Biodiversity.

Effective enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights can be understood by analyzing the intersection of IPR with other Laws. There is always debate and controversies between IPR and other laws. Such asIPR provides exclusive rights and recognizes the monopoly, and on the other hand, Competition Law prevents monopoly. These are just some of the issues prevailing in the IPR regime. These issues need academic discussion and deliberations.

Therefore, MMSCLC’s Intellectual Property Rights Cell considered it necessary to have a brainstorming discussion regarding various problems prevailing in Intellectual Property Rights and to find solutions to deal with them in these changing times.
