Expressing concerns over rising software piracy in India, Infosys mentor and chairman N R Narayana Murthy on Saturday called for enactment of laws to prevent illegal duplication.
Dissemination of information on existing laws could also prove to be a deterrent, Murthy said at the inauguration of the International Institute of Information Law.
He also emphasised the need to ensure that e-commerce was conducted according to laws and that no individual was harmed for using software or the Internet.
Karnataka High Court Chief Justice Cyriac Joseph, who also attended the function, meanwhile said there should be proper perception about justice.
"Sometimes, people think that justice implies arithmetical equality. Justice need not necessarily mean arithmetical equality and arithmetical equality need not necessarily mean justice", he said.
Unless there was a proper perception about justice, there would be "friction", which would retard development.
"In a just society, everyone should get what he needs and deserves. None should desire more than what he needs and deserves," he added.
