70% of people {think 800 million people} live on less than $2 per day in India. It would be naive to think that Indian govt will care about IP of Pharma companies. I understand it takes a billion dollar or more to create these block buster drugs, but a country like India cannot afford to worry about the profit these companies make. If these companies say they will either go out of business or stop producing these kinds of drugs it wouldn't matter to India. As a bulk of the people who need these drugs are already dying and a larger portion of the people will die. And India cant do a thing about it. That is the absurdity of the situation.
