B. Krishna Bhat sought a direction to restrain the Indian National Congress Party from using their party flag, claiming it was identical to the National Flag and violated Section 123(3) of the Representation of the People Act. The Supreme Court dismissed the petition, finding no merit since the Indian National Congress Party had adopted the flag as their political symbol long before.
