I,IST OF DATBS AI'TD SYITOPSIS
Honrble Court wl.ll have observed that, l.n recent,years there
has been a spate of big-slzed, fulL-page and half-page
advertJ,sements praced ln newspapersby different, Mlnistrles of the
Central Governmentas well by t,he $t ate Government,sr ost,enslbly
forproJecting the Smage of polj-ticlans, utJ.lJ.slngoccasions of
varlous types such as comrnemorationof a depart,ed leader,
encouxaging rural handlcraft s,openlng of a new bridge or road or
rallwayconnet:tlon, or I ay.lng foundatlon-stone of bul.ldlng,et'c.
These big-slzed advertlsements are quJ.tefrequentry belng placed in
neurspapers,ln dlfferentlanguages, all over the country.
Petit,ioner f eels that pro ject,irrg the Lmage oft,he
pollticlans, whose photographs are alsopromlnent'ry dlsplayed in
these advertlsements, andof thelr polit,lcal partJ.es, J.s
obvlously thesole purpose of these blg-sized advertLsement. If,for
lnstance, people have Lo be lnvit,ed t,o thef unct,lon of a
foundatlon-laylng ceremony or abrldge openlng ceremony thls purpose
can wellbe served by sendlng J-nvlt,at,ions or even throughbeat of
drums ln t,he area where the ceremonyhas to be performed, lnstead
of pracing advertlse-ment, rerated to the event,, dlspr.ryed in
newspapersln other parts of the country. Governmentalfunct,ioning
and achlevements can, where necessary,be proJected through medium
of radlo and TV.Peti-tloner has secured i-nformation t,haL

Delhi J-n, one rnreek, were i.8 ( det,ails furnlshedon top of each
of the A t,o K). These lgadvert.lsements of varlous sizes t,ot,aI
upto LZ fulI-page advertlsement s. Taking t,he tot al of LZ
full-page advertlsements appearing in one week, ln threenewspapers,
t,he average comes to f our f uII
-pageadvertisement,s in one newspaper j.n a week.Assuning that
there are only 5O0 newspapers andmagazines ln the country, printed
in varlouslanguages, which is obviously a conservative figure,the
average total of fulI-page advertisements ofthis nature appearing
l-n one year will be 4 x 500 x50 ( approxirnate number of weeks ln
a fear) = 200 x500 = L,00,000. Cost of full-page advertisement
lnnewspaper of wlde clrculatlon ranging from Rs 6.00 1akht'o I?s
8'00 rakh, even if we take the average cost ofRs 2.00 }akh, the
totar expenditure on r.,00,000 f ull-page a.dvertlsements will be
Rs 2r00r000 x Lr00,000= Rs 2000 crores. This much cost, is lncurred
bythe centre and states with t,he prtmary purpose apparentlyto
project the lmage of porlticians and t,helr partles.Petlt'ioner
feels that such actj-on on the part of centrarGovernment and St ate
covernments arnount,s 1nf act mlsutilLsat,ion of publlc funds whlch
canbe more gaj.nfully utillsed for betterment, of

The Petltloner does not conslderit, necessary to emphaslze that in
