National Anthem Rules, 1978
Singing of national anthem should not be restricted only in respect of the occasions specified in the Rules only. We have already modified the restriction of the singing of national anthem in the body of the judgment. .......Axiata (BD) Ltd. -VS- Kalipada Mridha & others, [1 LM (AD) 198]
Commercial Use of National Anthem- There is no gainsaying the fact that each of the leave-petitioners has been charging revenue for playing the national anthem on the mobile phones. On consideration of the Rules, in general, we find that there is no scope for commercial use of the national anthem. Such commercial use of national anthem shows utter disrespect to the national anthem. ..... Orascom Telecom VS- Kalipada Mridha & others, [1 LM (AD) 232]
