M/S. B.R.Industries v.State Of Meghalaya & 2 Ors.
The Meghalaya High Court addressed a jurisdictional challenge raised by respondents in a trademark infringement case involving 'Megha' cashew nuts. The court clarified that under the specific administrative rules governing tribal areas like Nongpoh, courts presided over by Deputy Commissioners and Additional Deputy Commissioners function as Principal Civil Courts of Original Jurisdiction. Consequently, these courts are deemed competent to try suits under Section 134 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, thereby upholding the petitioner's right to pursue the infringement claim.
