Supreme Court Decision on Government Ads

 The Supreme Court has banned the use of photos of any politicians Other than the Prime Minister in print ads placed by the government. The top court allowed the use of  images of President And the Chief Justice of India, but said, " Even these three Personalities will have to prove whether their photos will be there."
 The verdict applies to the frequent ads that are placed by the centre and state governments to publicise schemes.
"Photos have the potential of developing personalities cult," said the top court, exempting photos of deceased leaders from its new rules.
