Jammu: The army on Wednesday cautioned against unauthorised sale of outfits resembling its combat uniforms to the public, an official said.
The Northern Army Command, along with the police, have already carried out awareness campaigns in Udhampur city in order to dissuade sellers from trading unauthorised uniforms, he said.
The measure has been initiated as easy access to the Indian Army uniforms in open markets causes a potential threat to the security of military establishments and their personnel, PRO for the Northern Command said.
“Now, the Indian Army has chalked out plans to take tough action against the dealers who are selling unauthorised but almost similar looking pattern and fabric uniforms,” he added.
According to the officer, the army has applied to the office of the Controller General of Patents, Designs and TradeMarks, and it is expecting to own the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) soon.
