BISWA BANGLA –
Registered Trademark
13.06.2018|
West Bengal Government in last week have got the Trademark i.e. “Biswa Bangla” (TM
No. 2759274) registered in name of society i.e. West Bengal State Export
promotion society under the Department of MSME & T, Govt. of West Bengal. West
Bengal State Export promotion society is an arm of West Bengal Government.
Registrar
of Trademarks have passed an order for abandonment of Trademark due to
non-filing of Reply to the examiner report. However, the Government of West Bengal
changed the IP Attorney to carry on the registration procedure.
Story
of this mark is quite interesting as Mr. Abhishek Banerjee has earlier applied
for the registration of the same Trademark in the year 2013. However, the Govt.
of West Bengal opposed for the registration of the same and Mr. Abhishek
Banerjee on 13th November, 2017 withdrawn the application. It is
pertinent to mention that Mr. Abhishek Banerjee is nephew of Mamata Banerjee.
Mr. Abhishek Banerjee is an Indian politician and a member of parliament to the
16th Lok Sabha from Diamond Harbour Lok Sabha constituency, West Bengal. He won
the Indian general election, 2014 being an All India Trinamool Congress candidate.
He is also the National President of All India Trinamool Youth Congress the
youth wing of the All India Trinamool Congress, a political party in India,
currently in power in the Indian state of West Bengal.
Other
States in the country may go for the same and gradually India is leaping
forward by identifying the importance of the Intellectual Property Rights.
