26 September 2015 See Dear, the point is like this...

Using the name of INDIA is NOT at all ILLEGAL.

But the point is the GRACE that the word INDIA has got should be satisfied, isn't it?

Say a road side hawker or for that matter a small proprietor using the name INDIA in its trade name does'nt lokk good in the larger interest of our nation INDIA. Do you follow?

More than legal and illegal, it is the matter of PRIDE which we want to offer to our beloved mother nation INDIA called as Bharat,

As per the recent office instruction, the Shops and Establishment Officers have been instructed to see to it that the trade name under such circumstances does'nt carry such words like Govt, India, Vidyapeeth, University etc while granting the shops and establishment liscence
