Bombay High Court dismisses lawsuit against Prada over Kolhapuri chappal design use.

The Bombay High Court dismissed a PIL against Prada, accusing them of unauthorized use of Kolhapuri chappal designs. The court questioned the petitioners' right to sue. In response to criticism, Prada sent a team to Kolhapur to interact with local artisans, showing interest in a potential collaboration and launching a "Made in India" collection. The Kolhapuri chappal is protected under the Geographical Indications of Goods Act.
