Geographical Indications Registry, Chennai

TUIPR/Reports/38/2012/16

April 15, 2015

Muga Silk of Assam got a Geographical Indication (GI) registration in 2007 and in 2012, a Logo for GI- Muga Silk of Assam was also registered (Registered GI applications no 55 & 384). Assam Science, Technology and Environment Council (ASTEC) is the Registered Proprietor of the GI. Surprisingly from 2007 to 2014 there were only two “authorised users” of this GI. From 2014 to date, 19 applications to become authorised users of the GI - Muga Silk of Assam have been made to the GI Registry in Chennai, of which 14 applications have been published in the GI Journals (Journal Nos 59 & 62) and 5 applications are yet to be published.

The Tezpur University Intellectual Property Rights (TUIPR) Cell initiated a project to identify the key reasons for such low usage of the GI - Muga Silk of Assam. Extensive field work was undertaken in

some of the areas in which “Sericulture to Production of MUGA Products” is active to understand the

dynamics of the MUGA Silk value chain. The key reasons identified by Shri Arshad Hussain, JRF in the TUIPR Cell were low awareness of the significance of GI, non-availability of reliable quality monitoring

systems to differentiate “genuine MUGA Silk” from “adulterated MUGA” products, insignificant

oganisational support across the entire value chain including nonexistence of enforcement mechanisms in the State of Assam against adulteration and mixed products in the market place. A Regional

Workshop titled “Protection of Traditional Product Names in the North East Region using Geographical indications ........ Its importance in enhancing business and promoting Regional

Art and Craft” was conducted in Guwahati on 9th January 2015 in which around 100 stakeholders across the MUGA value chain participated. In addition to presentations on the basics of GI, the participants were engaged in an intense discussion to focus on the critical issues related to MUGA Silk

industry in the State of Assam. One of the main reasons for the low number of “authorised users” in

Assam was attributed to the near ignorance of the value of GI at the grassroots level and the difficulties in the preparation of error free applications to be sent to the GI Registry in Chennai.

Immediately following the workshop of January 9, 2015, Shri Arshad Hussain of the TUIPR Cell was deputed to conduct an extended field work in places like Dhakuakhana ,Ghilamara, Nakari, Panigaon, Khelmati, Napam and Rangpuria, to mobilise the stakeholders at the grassroots level for the GI Camp that was held on March
17, 2015 in North Lakhimpur of Lakhimpur District (Assam) ------- a rich hub of MUGA Silk production. Tezpur University IPR Cell (with funding support of the

Mr Arshad Hussain during his pre-workshop visit to the villages of Lakhimpur District

MHRD IPR Chair), the recently formed IPR Cell of Dibrugarh University and the faculty, including student volunteers of North Lakhimpur College, Assam collaborated in this unique GI Camp. Though no representatives from the GI Registry, Chennai could attend this GI Camp, the Asst. Registrar provided technical support by way of information booklets and procedural guidance on steps to prepare error-free

applications for “authorised users” of the GI - Muga Silk of Assam.

This GI Camp was truly “a grassroots initiative” as the proceedings were conducted mainly in Assamese language and partly in Hindi to ensure complete communication among all the participants and the organisers. Annexure I presents the GI Camp programme on March 17, 2015. Annexure II presents the unique brochure on GI and its significance with the

objectives of this workshop, prepared exclusively in Assamese. The day started with registration of the participants who had converged from within a radius of about 70 kms. One hundred seventeen (117) stakeholders from 33 villages of Lakhimpur District registered (Annexures III and IV) for this GI Camp. Students and faculty members of North Lakhimpur College and prominent local personalities participated in this camp. Dr Tara Nath Duwara, Department of
Anthropology, Dibrugarh University represented Dibrugarh University in this GI Camp.

The inaugural session was presided by Dr Biman Ch

Chetia, Principal, North Lakhimpur College. He appreciated the initiatives taken up by two premier

Dr Biman Ch Chetia speaking about the importance of the Camp

institutions of Assam like Tezpur and Dibrugarh University for the cause of MUGA Silk stakeholders.

Delivering the welcome address, Dr Pritam Deb, Coordinator, TUIPR Cell, Tezpur University gave a brief overview (in Assamese) of the activities and initiatives of the TUIPR Cell. He also highlighted the significance of this GI Camp and urged the participants to take full

advantage of these efforts and become authorised users of the GI - Muga Silk of Assam so that they can derive appropriate economic benefits and progress in their businesses profitably in this region.

Introducing the “theme of the camp”, Prof. Prabuddha

Ganguli, MHRD IPR Chair Professor, Tezpur University explained to the stakeholders (in Hindi) the rights of

“authorized users of any GI” and how they can actually

use the registered GI – MUGA Silk of Assam to derive higher gains in their respective businesses. He also gave

Prof P Ganguli elaborating the theme of the camp

examples of how GI has been effectively used in Europe by producers of agricultural goods. He further

showed with examples of how “collective trademark” and “certification trademark” can be used in

conjunction with the “GI Logo” by the “authorised users” to enhance value of their commercial ventures.

He ended his introductory remarks with the importance of creating “local bodies”, “associations”, “clusters” and “cooperatives” and how using the various tools of IPR such as patents, trademarks,

design registrations, and GI could create a new mode of working to promote socio-economic development of the communities in these regions.

The “guest of honour”, Dr Hamendra Kr Gogoi, former Principal and President, Governing Body, North Lahimpur College spoke in Assamese and expressed his concern on the uncontrolled adulteration in MUGA Silk and how this is leading to a constant decline in returns to genuine MUGA Silk producers in the region. He urged the participants to

immediately register as “authorised users of GI - Muga Silk of Assam”. He also highlighted the significant fall in the quality

and quantity of cocoons due to the uncontrolled use of pesticides and chemicals in the vicinities of the cultivation of the pupas. He cautioned against the dangers of environmental pollution as it is adversely affecting the unique

colour and quality of MUGA Silk.

The technical session was coordinated in

Assamese by Shri Bipul Saikia, Assistant Professor, North Lakhimpur College. He has long been involved in research related to sericulture and has been interacting with various stakeholders in the Muga value chain in this region. He gave an eloquent

presentation on the various factors that affect the quality of the pupa and their impact on the quality

of thread and the woven products. He urged the participants to actively participate in the camp and contribute to the establishment of a vibrant MUGA Silk industry in this region.

The first presentation in technical session was conducted in Assamese by Dr (Smt) Suchibrata Goswami of TUIPR Cell.

She gave an “Overview of Intellectual Property Rights”

using slides in Assamese. She explained how various aspects of IPR such as patents, trademarks, design registrations and GI can be intelligently used to protect creations of the human mind. She then used diverse aspects of MUGA Silk products, MUGA Silk production and

Dr Suchibrata Goswami speaking on IPR tools

processes to explain how different tools of IPR can be used to protect innovations in the MUGA Silk value chain. This introductory session activated the participants and induced them to think of their own activities and identify the type of innovations they have been involved in and how they can gain from IPR in their own MUGA silk related activities.

Smt. Juri Borbora Saikia of TUIPR Cell spoke in

Assamese on “Geographical Indications with special

reference to Muga Silk of Assam”. She elaborated on

the concept of GI and illustrated how the environments in

Ms Juri Borbora Saikia explaining GI

specific geographical regions affect the properties and characteristics of various products. She also elaborated on the provisions of the GI Act in India, on how the “names” of products produced in certain

regions that have gained reputation over time are protected by GI and how these “protected names” add

value in businesses. She showed the participants how the packet of “Bikanneri Bhujia” is marked with a GI logo and how this has now begun to yield higher value in the market place. She then introduced the “logo of GI - Muga Silk of Assam ” to the participants and indicated to them that they can use this logo only if they become “authorised users” of the Muga GI by making their applications to the GI Registry in Chennai. The uniqueness of the GI-Muga Silk of Assam was explained to the stakeholders. The significance of the MUGA as defined in the GI Application was highlighted. She explained to the

participants that only the “authorised users” who satisfied the specifications laid down in the GI

Application, would be entitled to use the “logo of GI -

Muga Silk of Assam ” on their products.

The pre-lunch session was followed by a vibrant and active interaction with the participants. This session which was conducted in Hindi and Assamese was coordinated by Prof P Ganguli. Several questions on GI were raised by the participants. These were responded to by Professor Ganguli, Smt Juri Borbora Saikia, Dr (Smt) Suchibrata Goswami.

The participants emphasised on the urgency of laying down clear specifications for the use of the “logo of GI -

Participants enquiring on Muga purity testing facility

Muga Silk

of Assam ”, need for simple tests that can be performed to differentiate adulterated from pure Muga and immediate establishment of an enforcement body in the State for purity of Muga products. Without these features in place, the participants were not confident of the meaningful use of the GI Logo in their businesses.

Formation of a fully functional Inspection Body was an important recommendation of the day that came collectively from the stakeholders. Many prominent local persons demanded the formation of such a body with immediate effect to save authentic muga from further decline.

The post lunch session was dedicated to

facilitating the filling of the application forms. The stakeholders, who were earlier briefed in their villages by Shri Arshad Hussain, were “in-principle prepared” to fill the application forms to become

“authorised users” of the GI - Muga Silk of Assam.

Student volunteers from North Lakhimpur College and members of the TUIPR Cell actively participated in facilitating the forms filling process which was coordinated by Shri Arshad Hussain. Affidavits were prepared on the spot by the TUIPR Cell members and they were completed with the help of a local attorney who was hired for this

Arshad Hussain and other TUIPR Cell members helping in form filling process

specific purpose. Eighty Nine (89) application forms were completed by the end of the day (Annexure V) Fifty four (54) stakeholders submitted their drafts for registration fee (Rs 600/- per head ) on the day of the camp. The remaining 35 applicants paid the application fees to the TUIPR Cell. The TUIPR Cell got the drafts prepared on behalf of the applicants.

The last session titled “The Way Forward”, was a discussion on how the applicants would organise themselves to propagate the concept of GI - Muga Silk of Assam in their working environments and ecosystem. Shri Arshad Hussain and Professor Ganguli explained to the applicants that the next step from

the TUIPR Cell would be to obtain a “consent letter”

from ASTEC in support of their applications and then have the application forms sent to the GI Registry in Chennai. The applicants were informed that Assam Science Technology and Environment Council

(ASTEC), Guwahati, Assam is the “Registered

Proprietor” of the GI-Muga Silk of Assam and hence

consent from the “Registered Proprietor” is essential as per the GI Act of India.

The participants urged the TUIPR Cell to organise the next meeting on GI - Muga Silk of Assam in another location in the region so that the concept of GI can be spread and also invite senior government officials of the State of Assam to participate so that the formation of the much needed inspection body and enforcement mechanisms can be put in place.

The programme ended with a “Vote of Thanks” by Shri Bipul Saikia. A glimpse of some select moments of the GI Camp is given in Annexure VI. Brief profile of the Resource Persons is in Annexure VII.

    Central Water Commission Central Flood Control Room, New Delhi Special Advisories for North Eastern States, West Bengal & Sikkim 18-07-2020

    Central Water Commission Central Flood Control Room, New Delhi Special Advisories for North Eastern States, West Bengal & Sikkim 18-07-2020 Due to shifting of Monsoon Trough to foot hills of Himalaya and availability of moisture for extreme precipitation, there is likelihood of Heavy to Very Heavy Rain at few places and isolated Extremely Heavy Rainfall over Arunachal Pradesh on 19th and 20th July, Assam & Meghalaya, Sub-Himalayan West Bengal & Sikkim from 19th to 22nd July. Arunachal Pradesh River Siang at Passighat in East Siang District has started rising again and started flowing in Above Normal Flood Situation and heavy rainfall has already started in its catchment. Due to forecasted rainfall during next 3 days there is likelihood of rapid rise in Water Levels in Rivers Siang, Lohit, Dibang, Subansiri, Kameng and Noa- Dehing in the districts of East and West Siang, Lohit, Anjaw, Changlang, Lower Dibang, Kameng and Subansiri Districts. There are chances of flash floods also in association with cloud burst in Hilly regions. Assam Brahmaputra River Brahmaputra is in Severe to Above Normal Flood Situation all along its course from Dibrugarh to Dhubri. Station wise situation based on 0800 hrs level of today is as under: Dibrugarh (Dibrugarh District): River is rising and is in Above Normal Flood Situation. Since extreme rainfall is likely to continue for 3-4 more day, there is likelihood of river crossing Danger Level by tomorrow and remain in Severe to Extreme flood situation during the next 2-3 days. Since there is high probability of extreme rain in catchment areas of River Siang, Lohit, Dibang, there is a 10-15% probability of River touching or crossing HFL at Dibrugarh.
