India, March 19 -- The Supreme Court on Tuesday allowed the Sharad Pawar faction of the Nationalist Congress Party to use the name 'NCP-SCP' and the symbol of a 'man blowing turrah' for both Lok Sabha and Assembly elections. The court directed the Election Commission of India to officially lock the 'man blowing turrah' as the poll symbol of the Sharad Pawar faction.
The apex court also restrained the Ajit Pawar faction from using the name or photograph of NCP founder Sharad Pawar in any election campaign materials.
