Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC), which, in the recent years, has adopted \u201czero tolerance\u201d against the sale of spurious\/non-Khadi products, has cancelled the \u201cKhadi Certification\u201d to its oldest Khadi Institution named Mumbai Khadi & Village Industries Association (MKVIA), which was running the prestigious \u201cKhadi Emporium\u201d at Metropolitan Insurance House, a heritage building, located at DR D.N. Singh Road in Mumbai since 1954.<\/p>\n

The action came after KVIC found that the said Khadi Emporium at Dr D.N. Road was selling non-Khadi products in the guise of genuine Khadi. During routine inspection, KVIC officials collected samples from the Emporium that were found to be non-Khadi products. KVIC issued a legal notice to MKVIA for flouting the norms of \u201cKhadi Certificate\u201d and \u201cKhadi Mark Certificate\u201d issued by the Commission. With cancellation of the registration, Khadi Emporium ceases to be a genuine Khadi Outlet and is no longer permitted to sell Khadi products from the Emporium. KVIC is also contemplating legal action against the MKVIA for criminal breach of trust and cheating public at large by misusing the credibility and popularity of brand Khadi.<\/p>\n

KVIC had, in the year 1954, handed over the operation and management of Khadi Emporium to MKVIA, a registered Khadi Institution, on the strict condition that it would sell only \u201cGenuine Khadi Products\u201d from the emporium. However, in recent years, MKVIA had indulged in unfair trade practices by selling fake Khadi products and thus cheating people who were under the impression that this Emporium was being run by KVIC.<\/p>\n

It is pertinent to mention that KVIC, in the last few years, has acted tough against the misuse of its brand name \u201cKhadi India\u201d and infringement into its trademark. So far KVIC has issued legal notices to over 1200 individuals and firms including retail brand Fabindia for misusing the brand name \u201cKhadi\u201d and selling non-Khadi products under the name of \u201cKhadi\u201d. KVIC has sought damages to the tune of Rs 500 crore from Fabindia which is pending before the Mumbai High Court. Last year, KVIC also forced online shopping portals \u2013 Amazon, Flipkart and Snapdeal \u2013 to take down 140 web links that were selling non-Khadi products as \u201cKhadi\u201d.<\/p>\n

In several such cases, KVIC dragged the violators to the courts and secured orders restraining them from misusing the brand name \u201cKhadi\u201d. As a result, a number of violators tendered apology and undertook not to use brand name \u201cKhadi\u201d in future.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
