New Delhi, Jan 15: Four Indian physical markets along with Snapdeal, one of India's largest e-commerce platforms, have figured in the US trade regulator's list of "notorious markets" that facilitate the sale of counterfeit and pirated products.
The four markets are Heera Panna in Mumbai, Kidderpore in Kolkata and Palika Bazaar and Tank Road in Delhi.
Aizawl's Millennium Center, mentioned in last year's list, has been replaced by Palika Bazaar.
"Holding intellectual property rights violators accountable and ensuring that American innovators and creators have a full and fair opportunity to use and profit from their work is critical for both physical and online markets," US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer said.
