It is further contended that the learned single Judge erred in holding that the trade mark "malar tv" had become publici juris. It is also contended that the learned single Judge erred in concluding that "Malar TV" is a channel whereas they are doing the business of Cable T.V. connection in Virudhunagar with their cable transmissions in the local area.
