THE BOMBAY KHOTI ABOLITION ACT, 1949 [Act No. 6 of 19501] [3rd April, 1950] PREAMBLE An Act to abolish the khoti tenure in the 2[State of Bombay]. WHEREAS it is expedient to abolish the khoti tenure prevailing in the districts of *Ratnagiri and Kolaba in the 3[Bombay area of the State of Maharashtra] and to provide for certain consequential and incidental matters hereinafter appearing; It is hereby enacted as follows INTRODUCTION The khoti tenure originated in the Konkan Region owing to the rugged nature of the tract. This created tremendous difficulty in collecting land revenue regularly. This situation created a middleman called khot . This category of tenure, was historically created by Yusuf Adil Shah of Bijapur (1489-1510). Subsequently, some khots were created by Moghuls, Marathas and Peshwas. In Konkan, two categories of Khoti tenures were existing (a) khoti in Ratnagiri and Kolaba District, (b) the Salsette estates known as Salsette khoti (in Bombay Suburban District and Thane District). The khoti tenure in ex-Janjira State and Bhor State merged in the Kolaba District. There were 952 villages in Ratnagiri and 464 villages in Kolaba, covering an.....

British Statutes (Application to India) Repeal Act, 1960 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1960

.....as the repeal of certain British statutes is concerned. As respects the recommendations relating to the replacement of certain British statutes by Acts of Parliament, the Merchant Shipping Act, 1958. has already replaced all the British statutes on that subject and many of the remaining Acts are under separate examination. 2. The reasons for repealing most of the British statutes are contained in the comments of the Commission in Appendix II at pp. 33-84 of its Fifth Report. The present Bill, however, includes a few British statutes which the Fifth Report has listed in Appendix III as statutes with respect to which legislation in India appears to be prima facie necessary. The examination of these Acts has revealed that they may also be repealed. The notes explain the reasons for including such statutes in the present Bill. 3. Clause 3 of the Bill introduces a saving provision on the lines recommended in paragraph 15 of the Report in order to make it clear that the repeal cannot possibly affect any privileges to which India and her citizens may be entitled under any statute now sought to be repealed in its application to territories outside India to which the India.....

Presidency Towns Insolvency Act, 1909 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1909

....."If this Bill be passed into law it will be necessary to repeal the 1848 Act, and this raise a question which deserves consideration. The present Act is an Act of the imperial Parliament and a vesting order made under it vests in the assignee by direct operation all the real and personal estate and effects of the insolvent in whatever part of the King's dominions they may be situate or accrue; and a discharge under the Act has effect in every part of those dominions. The Act is one of those which it is within the competency of the Legislative Council of the Governor-General to repeal, but if it be repealed and an Indian Act be substituted, it follows that these advantages must at least for the most part be abandoned, since an Act of the Indian Legislature cannot operate for this purpose outside the limits of India. In 1886 it was proposed that an Act of the Imperial Parliament should be obtained to give this authority to insolvency proceedings in India, but no such Act has as yet been passed. It is believed, however, that the advantages conferred by the Act of 1848 are of no real value, since experience has shown that in practically every case in which there are assets in both.....
