Dispute Summary
The petitioner, Director of 'Kerala Kathakali Centre', challenged a notice prohibiting the use of his organization's name for trade purposes under Section 3 of the Emblems and Names (Prevention of Improper Use) Act, 1950. The High Court dismissed the writ petition, holding that the name suggested patronage of the State Government. The subsequent Writ Appeal was also dismissed.
