New Delhi, Aug. 6 -- The Supreme Court today set aside the interim order of the Madras High Court which had restrained the Tamil Nadu Government from using the name of Chief Minister MK Stalin for its flagship welfare awareness campaign 'Ungaludan Stalin' (your Stalin).
The court also imposed a cost of Rs 10 lakh on AIADMK MP C. Ve Shanmugam, who had originally challenged the scheme, terming his petition "politically motivated" and an "abuse of the process of law."
