Reliance GI of JamNagar petroleum- cancelled. GI Registry acts at the dictates of Reliance

• With an extra ordinary speed of approximately 30 days, the Indian GI Registry not only notified the applications but was also generous by illegally allowing Reliance for clubbing their four applications into one application. Undoubtedly there was a clear abuse of Government machinery run on public money for illegal benefiting Reliance and protecting there illegal design to capture generic product like oil. There was financial loss to the public exchequer by doing so.
• A couple of person from India and from UK including me filed objections to such acceptance by the Registrar GI. After long wait and realizing that they shall not succeed in capturing generic product like Oil, Reliance moved for withdrawal of their application.
• The Registrar GI as usual acted as per their choice and allowed withdrawal without imposing any cost/fine on Reliance for wasting Public money, hundreds of hours of public officers beside wasting four years to achieve their commercial designs.
• Finally the notification of Jamnagar GI has been canceled. Not at the instance of the Government but due to the couple of public objections.
• Why the Government of India acts at the behest and personal dictates of such large commercial establishments, still an unanswered question.
