    In the past few weeks, India was witnessing a new form of censorship. The works of a fine arts student of Maharaja Sayajirao University of Vadodara were vandalized by communal activists on the ground that student has negatively portrayed the deities and there by hurt the religious sentiments of the

On which side, does the truth lie? Obviously, this standoff between creativity and intolerance is nothing

    The Bizarre Paradox
    India, as a melting pot of cultures is home to a vivid and versatile artistic tradition, which is subjected to all sorts of experimentations. Every artistic work bears the indelible imprimatur of the artist's passions, choices, predilections and prejudices, and i
    d dose combinations are still in the process of convincing regulatory authority on their advantages over the single ingredient formulations.

If he/she is asked to get in to the straight jackets of contemporary morality, it is like asking a sculptor to chisel the statue to fit in to a particular mould, a shape
    ucts have become life saving products for the pharmaceutical companies who doesn’t have many innovative molecules in their product pipeline and have been inc
    agreed to by every one. But then is the notion of contemporary morality reflects such unanimous choice or a collective conscience of the connoisseurs of art? How can it be for such a diverse and distinct society? Artists draw flak whenever they stray away from the trodden path and try to revisit t
    easingly used in the product life cycle management. Even the companies having product patents are trying to extend their product life cycle through the combi
    e settled notions and beliefs. We cannot insist that an art form should neatly fit in to some pigeonholes of contemporary notions of religion and individual beliefs. The society should criticize, debate and discuss an artistic work and should very well decide to accept or reject it. But it should s

    The Buck Stops Here


    Once again, religious iconography has become a burning issue. When individual beliefs feels threatened by the divergent voices and need reassurances, it is setting a different precedent for India's age-old virtue of tolerance. It seems the pluralistic stat

We should clearly give space to divergent opinions as long as we have the freedom to accept or reject it. The constitution clearly stipulates how much noise we can make by defining the freedom of
    ts. Some of the combination products were well accepted by physicians while others suffered. Companies involved in development of combination products are fi
    expression and the reasonable restrictions. When voice of dissent relegates into irrational noises of intolerance with preachy overtones, the constitutional guarantees are jeopardized. Moreover, we have penal laws to check whether artistic freedom relegates to licentiousness. The law contemplates s
    ding difficulty in defining their combination products and facing various challenges from selecting a combination to marketing it.

In Vadodara, the exhibition was not meant for the public and it was more a part of internal assessment, conducted with in the precincts of the University. The activists have no locus standi

    Which markets to tap where the combination products can do fairly well?
    Which combination prod

    And finally, we should do a reality check as to how much these moral brigade were able to achieve. Remember the hullabaloo over the dress code imposed by Anna University, smoking in films has all failed to achieve the desired results. Even films w

For instance, the film Nishabd which tells the story of a 60 year old man falls for his daughter's friend was accused of sending the wrong signals. Is the average Indian waiting to be strayed into prohibited territories at the drop of a hat? What do
    tions increase the patient compliance?
    What would be the developing cost?
    How to tackle the risks encountered during combination product developmen

Nevertheless, if we insist that artists should exercise restraint ignoring the compulsions of creativity, what would be the end pro

    As combination products don't fit into the traditional categories of drugs, medical devices, or biological products, the USFDA is in the process of devel

For the same reason, what happened in Vadodara cannot be written off as one odd incident. Political forces are brewing a deadly

    To determine what is objectionable and what is not by defining contemporary mortality is too dangerous a task to be left to the discretion of communal forces that holds a jaundiced view of religion. Culture offers a shared platfo

    m where every one has their due. Obviously, this is the most prized feature of a democracy, that every one has an opinion. And it has the flip side too- that every one has got a veto power. True democracy lies in the reconciliation of these conflicting notions. And unfortunately, we have forgotten

    As there is an increasing trend of the combination products companies manufacturing such products should be able to tackle the problems involved in the de
