Delhi HC: selling a trademark as an ad keyword is infringement. Rs 30 lakh
US 11th Circuit, 11 weeks later: not infringement at all.
Same conduct. Opposite answers

No third world nations sports fans do not do this. You can keep your first world behavioural patterns to yourself. India won the Cricket world Cup back to back. Not a peep of an incident. And India is way more populated. Indian authorities are far better at giant crowd management.
People keep complaining about @IndiGo6E ground handling so here’s my experience today at Khajuraho airport.
Three check in counters open & manned but two refuse to accept passengers. Every one is directed to one counter manned by a trainee.
As I am checking in I ask the counter supervisor why the other counters won’t accept passengers.
“They are only for fast forward.”
Me: I thought there was no fast forward any longer!
“It’s not on the site but we do have it”
Me: What do you get in fast forward?
“You get priority baggage handling and priority boarding.”
Me: If I had known I would have taken it.
“You can still take it.”
I hand over my credit card. He swipes it. As the luggage is being tagged I notice there is. no Fast Forward tag and ask about it.
“ We stopped doing priority baggage handling for Fast Forward. It only gives you priority check in. “
But I had already checked in. I wouldn’t have taken it if you
hadn’t told me about priority baggage handling .
“I never said priority baggage handling.”
Yes you did . I heard you.
“Okay at least you can
board any time you like.”
I ask for the manager. The supervisor insists he never said anything about baggage handling.
Manager: “I will not accept that my staff are lying.”
But you think I am lying?
He shrugs.
The sum of money is small &
the issue is minor. But given how much we have heard about the culture of lying in @indigo , firing one gora scapegoat may not be enough.
The rot has infected the culture
@airtelindia@Airtel_Presence @sunilbhartimittal Extremely frustrated. I initiated MNP from Vodafone to Airtel last Saturday. My Vodafone SIM stopped working 4 days ago, yet Airtel has failed to activate the new SIM—leaving me without a phone for days.

@Airtel_Presence@airtelindia@Airtel_Presence@TRAI I requested MNP from Vodafone to Airtel last Saturday. Vodafone SIM stopped working 4 days ago, but Airtel has failed to activate the new SIM
A visit to the Adhchini Airtel Store provided no resolution, only buck-passing between backend and frontend teams.
@Airtel_Presence@airtelindia@Airtel_Presence How does a telecom major leave a customer without a working phone for 4 days during MNP? Vodafone disconnected, Airtel failed to activate. Store visit = zero accountability. Is this Airtel’s service standard?
Bought a policy from Kotak (Policy No. CD000239). It didn’t suit me, so I exercised my legal right to cancel within the 15-day free-look period and emailed them in time. Shockingly, no acknowledgement even after reminders.

Shocking: A news reporter from Tata Nagar, Jamshedpur (channel unknown), was seen littering in broad daylight. When confronted by an NGO that works tirelessly around the clock to keep the streets clean, he offered these excuses. Can we track him down and make him issue a public apology? I’ve always said civic sense isn’t determined by education. This behavior is utterly shameless.
Shameless Shinde Sena MLA Sanjay Gaikwad punches & slaps a canteen staffer at the MLA canteen over poor quality dal. VIP thugs in every Sena of Maharashtra. Useless coward.
महेंद्र सिंह धोनी ने ‘Captain Cool’ के लिए ट्रेडमार्क अप्लाई किया था. उनके इस आवेदन को अब दिल्ली के एक वकील ने चुनौती दी है. वो भी बाकायदा तर्कों के साथ. वकील का दावा है, ये सामान्य सा फ्रेज़ है, धोनी अकेले ही इस फ्रेज पर एकाधिकार नहीं जता सकते.

Will #CaptainCool stay trademarked? #IPR#LegalNews
A Delhi-based lawyer has formally opposed former Indian cricket captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s attempt to trademark the phrase “Captain Cool”.
The former Indian cricket team captain's bid to trademark the phrase “Captain Cool” for entertainment and sports-related services recently cleared a key regulatory hurdle, with the Trade Marks Registry formally accepting the application and publishing it in the official journal.
Advocate Ashutosh Choudhary has challenged the registrability of the phrase on the grounds that it is generic, descriptive and intrinsically linked to public commentary and sporting culture, rather than to any distinct source or commercial origin.
