Ram-da, Court hasn't decided - AICTE has. Indian is Indian -- if IIM or IIT dont like others having same name - they can change theirs and call themselves International IT or International IM.

The court seems to think that using the words "Indian or National" in the name would basically mislead or confuse it with the IIT or IIM. When you apply for an assumed name (or a DBA) in the US, you will also have to go thru what they call a name search to see if your business name conflicts or is similar to some other name. For instance, you can't have a name like "Disney Productions". >or do they want to extend second class citizen status - overtly, in a >legal >manner now.

What has the Court's decision got to do with second class citizens or whatever? You know, shock-jockeys in the US say some of the most outrageous things - take a wild guess why they would do so! :) --Ram da On 2/15/08, umesh sharma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: http://www.thehindu.com/2008/02/15/stories/2008021560231400.htm It seems you cannot have an American Univ or American Christian Univ, etc etc if such a law was passed in the USA. Why should Indian be reserved for govt colleges - are only government employee run colleges and institutions (like AICTE) the only true Indian - or do they want to extend second class citizen status - overtly, in a legal manner now. Don't govt employees in general treat others as second class citizens already -esp private sector.
