Soumen Sen, C.J.

The petitioner states to be a social worker and a public spirited person and has now challenged that the various cricket tournaments including the Indian Premier League (IPL) which is a franchise based twenty-20 cricket tournament organised by the 2nd respondent is not permitted to use the said name. The said tournament is continuing for several years and it is now stated that the petitioner recently realised that the IPL is not an official Cricket tournament of the Country and as such the use of the name Indian Premier League is illegal as used by the Board of Control for Cricket.

                  We find no merit in the substance of the said argument and hence we do not feel that it would be proper to keep this writ petition as a Public Interest Litigation.
