Background of the matter:
A professional Association registered under societies Act in India had recently conducted a national level conference JOINTLY with a Central govt Organisation. The Asssn is registered @ Kolkatta whereas having a regional centre in chennai. The conference was conducted in the premises of the Central Govt organisation @chennaiand got inaugurated by a State Governor H.E.
2. Undersigned being a member of the Assn..had an interest to look on updates of it and incidentally looked at the separate website launched by the Organisers (jointly on name of Assn + central govt organisation).While on it, it was surprising to note that in the said website & conference brochure, the State Govt's Logo + Central Govt Logo + logo of State govts dept were all appearing.........on the interest being also an RTI activist, under RTI Act, filed an application with PIO of concerned dept (who is custodian of states logo/emblem) and sought for a copy of appln filed by Organisers of the said conference and also copy of permission /grant letter issued by the dept for making use of the states logo in the conference/printing materials..Of course i did not attend the said conference.
3. In response to RTI, the PIO has replied that NEITHER APPLICATION WAS MADE BY ORGANISERS NOR PERMISSION WAS GRANTED..
4.Thus,it is clear that the organisers of the said conference HAVE MISUSED THE
logo of State /Country...
My questions are as follows:
1. As regards misuse of States logo, On the interest of public/state, can i file a complaint with police?.. (because PIO has only provided info and have not indicated that any suo moto action has been taken by the concerned dept against those misuser..)
2. Can i file a case directly with high court ?
3.should i file complaint with Head of the dept (chief secretary of state) AS IT WAS INAUGURATED BY STATE'S H.E GOVERNOR
4. In case of police complaint, should it be filed in the jurisdictional station under which the venue of the conference
falls.
5. In case of police complaint, can i pray to take action against Organisers of the conference and also those who have been helping directly / indirectly (Host of the website/head of the Central Govt organisation who was steering committee chairman of the conference, advisor to state govt dept who was also organising chairman) on the misuse of the states logo.
6. As regards logo of GOI, should i file a separate complaint?.
7. Being a complainant on the interest of public, what the police would require from me after registering complaint?
8.After, registering the complaint, what the police is suppose to do... (will they file case in court?...will i be called for party to case?
9. any other views /advises please..
Thanks & Regards
