Recommendations:
The individual primary member
of the IAP can use the Logo on his/her academy/professional card and
letter head and cannot use the Logo on prescription pads and trade cards.
Every primary member has the privilege to use IAP Logo sticker on his
personal vehicle, however he/she cannot use it on commercial vehicles
owned by them.
Primary member of any branch can use Logo for propagating the objectives
of the IAP in the Media/AIR/DD/Newsletter / Bulletin however local branch
should be informed of this academic activity.
The local branch/state branch / chapter / group / cell / centre / committees
cannot sale the Logo or use it on the accessories for the purpose of
the making funds for its activities. The propriety and the power of
use of Logo for sale or use by the trade lies with the Central IAP without
violating the norms of the Academy.
It is local branch/state branch / chapter / group / cell / centre /
committees to print Logo on the Letter heads and all the official correspondence
by the office bearers should be done on this letter head.
The communication sent on IAP Letter head is presumed to be the voice
of the IAP in unanimity expressed by the Office Bearers of that concerned
local branch/state branch / chapter / group / cell / centre / committees
If any primary member wants to express his/her personal views may express
on the personal letter head and views are purely personal and individual.
Avoid individual criticism on IAP Letter head even as an office bearer
of the particular local branch/state branch / chapter / group / cell
/ centre / committees, such members who are disregarding this norm would
invite disciplinary action by the Executive Board.
The Executive Board of IAP has the privilege and authority to WARN any
such member whose writings are controversial, disrespecting and conducive
to the ideals of the IAP and direct him not to indulge in a manner which
would undermine the prestige of the IAP.
In spite of memorandum of warning if the member is not conducting properly,
the Executive Board has the right to temporarily suspend the member
from the primary membership for a period of one year and may be re-instate
into the academy after reviewing his/her conduct by the EBM. During
the period of suspension such member cannot officially participate in
the IAP meetings or contest any form of IAP Elections.
It is the responsibility bestowed on Executive Board to be vigilant
and alert on such activities of the primary members which are derogatory
