Supreme Court Dismisses 'Frivolous' Petition Against 'Team India' Name

• The Supreme Court, led by CJI Suryakant, dismissed a petition challenging Prasar Bharati's use of 'Team India' for the BCCI cricket team.
• The petition, filed by advocate Reepak Kansal, argued that BCCI, as a private entity, should not be called 'Team India' without government approval.
• The bench upheld the Delhi High Court's earlier dismissal of the PIL, calling the petition a 'sheer waste of the court's time'.
• CJI Suryakant questioned the petitioner's argument, asking if the team does not represent India despite playing globally.
• The court emphasized that such 'meaningless' petitions burden the judiciary and divert resources from important cases.

Why It Matters: Supreme Court rejects a petition questioning the 'Team India' name for cricket, calling it a waste of time.
