He added that the Directorate of
Advertising and Visual Publicity (DAVP), a media unit of ministry, is the nodal
agency for release of advertisement on the policies and programme of the government
in various media vehicles, but "releases government advertisements only
and does not release advertisements of any private body". The Total Investment

that the necessary act, the Emblems and Names (prevention of improper use) Act
