The Delhi High Court has cautioned against the invocation of personality rights to extinguish caricature, lampooning, or parody which may not be commercially exploitative.
The court made the observation while granting protection to Physics Wallah founder Alakh Pandey against the use of his name, image, and other attributes from impersonation and monetisation by third parties.

The Aayog, in the report titled 'Reimagining Skilling for Viksit Bharat@2047', said the estimate is based on data from the 78th round of the National Sample Survey conducted in 2021.
