Surkha Guava of Allahabad has not been granted protection under the Geographical indications Act, 1998.<\/p>\n<p>A geographical indication (GI) is a sign used on products that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities or a reputation that are due to that origin. The GI Act, 1999, provides for the registration and protection of GIs in India.<\/p>\n<p>The following are the items that have been granted protection under the GI Act, 1998:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alphonso Mangoes from Ratnagiri, Devgad, and Sangli districts of Maharashtra<\/li>\n<li>Darjeeling Tea from the Darjeeling district of West Bengal<\/li>\n<li>Basmati Rice from the states of Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Uttarakhand<\/li>\n<li>Banarasi Sarees from Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh<\/li>\n<li>Lucknow Chikan Craft from Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Surkha Guava of Allahabad is a type of guava that is grown in the Allahabad district of Uttar Pradesh. It is a small, round fruit with a red skin and a sweet, juicy flesh. Surkha Guava is a popular fruit in India and is used in a variety of dishes.<\/p>\n<p>However, Surkha Guava of Allahabad has not been granted protection under the GI Act, 1998. This means that there is no legal protection for the name &#8220;Surkha Guava of Allahabad&#8221; and anyone can use this name to sell guavas that are not grown in the Allahabad district.<\/p>\n<p>This is a problem because it can lead to confusion among consumers and can also damage the reputation of the Surkha Guava of Allahabad. It is important that Surkha Guava of Allahabad is granted protection under the GI Act, 1998 so that the name can be used only for guavas that are grown in the Allahabad district and so that the reputation of the fruit can be protected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Lucknow Chikan Craft&#8221; option2=&#8221;Banarasi Saree&#8221; option3=&#8221;Darjeeling Tea&#8221; option4=&#8221;Surkha Guava of Allahabad&#8221; correct=&#8221;option4&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[402],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3037","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-geographical-indications","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Which one of the following items has not been granted protection under the Geographical indications Act, 1998?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A geographical indication (GI) is a sign used on products that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities or a reputation that are due to that origin.
