State: Central

Year: 1878

..... TREASTURE TROVE ACT, 1878 6 of 1878 13th February, 1878 STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS "The law of treasure trove is in a very unsatisfactory state. At present, there is one law in Madras and another in Bengal, while it is doubtful what the law is in Bombay, and in the three Presidency-towns probably the English law prevails. Moreover, the law everywhere is bad and ineffective, and gives every inducement to finders to conceal or make away with their discoveries; and yet there is a good deal of treasure buried in India and much of it of very high antiquarian and historical interest. Under these circumstances, the present Bill has been prepared. It provides, among other things, that- (a) the finder shall give notice to the Collector of the District of the discovery of treasure, and either deposit the treasure in the Government Treasury, or give security for producing it when required; (b) notice shall be given by the Collector to the owner or owners of the land where the treasure was found; (c) the discovery of the treasure shall be advertised, and all claimants desired to come forward within six months; (d) if there is reason to believe that the treasure was hidden.....
