Plea against INDIA acronym politically motivated: Cong

The Morning Standard

|

April 10, 2024

THE Congress on Tuesday opposed in the Delhi High Court a petition against the use of acronym INDIA, saying it is a "politically motivated" plea and should be dismissed with exemplary costs.

The Congress said the petitioner has failed to establish the very basis of the plea, that the name of the alliance has caused confusion amongst the voters and misled them into voting for the alliance solely on the basis of the acronym and "as a matter of national duty".

 "The petitioner has also failed to provide any evidence with respect to use of 'I.N.D.I.A' as an acronym for an alliance as 'diminishing goodwill' of the nation in global politics," the Congress said in its reply.
