Intellectual property refers to inventions, innovations, novel ideas, work of art, music, etc. Intellectual property rights are the rights of exclusivity granted to the owner of the above mentioned properties. These intellectual rights basically are rights to obtain patents, trademarks, copyrights etc. Thus, if the intellectual property law (IP law) is strictly followed, the IP rights ensure that the people who have done the original work are not deprived of the credits, benefits, rewards, and fame for being the innovators. The IP law provides them the intellectual protection against plagiarism and helps them guard against others from adapting this work and presenting it as their own.
