Land Acquisition (Mines) Act, 1885 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1885

.....in which mines or minerals are situate under land which it is desired to acquire under the Land Acquisition Act, 1870 (now see Land Acquisition Act, 1894). Act XXII of 1863, which was replaced by the Land Acquisition Act, 1870, contained specific provisions (Ss. 51and52) for cases in which mines and minerals lay under land taken up under that Act. These provisions were not, however, re-enacted in the Act of 1870, which as the Government is advised, contemplates the acquisition of the underlying minerals as well as the surface of the land. Hitherto this state of the law has caused no inconvenience. Now, however, owing to its being proposed to extend railways across districts where there is a certain amount of coal to be found, notice has been drawn to, the convenience of the existing law which practically compels the Government either to purchase all the mines and minerals under the land over which it is proposed to construct a line or to abandon the undertaking altogether. Under these circumstances the present Bill has been prepared. It does not however simply re-enact the provisions which Act XXII of 1863 formerly contained, inasmuch as they do not appear to be adopted to.....
