State: Central

Year: 1959

.....of the provisions of the Act. There has been increased use of firearms, mootly unauthorised by terrorists and others in committing violent acts. Such activities have been particularly noticed in 'disturbed areas' like Punjab and Chandigarh. The punishments provided for at present do not have a strong deterrent effect. There is, therefore, an increased need to provide for more stringent punishment to curb unauthorised access to arms and ammunition and to combat the growing menace of terrorism. It is accordingly proposed to provide for very stringent punishments for illegal possession or carrying of arms in disturbed areas and for contravention of sub-section(1B) of section 25of the Act in disturbed areas. It is also proposed to make the Punishments for other contraventions of the said sub-section(1B) more stringent. 2 The.Bill seeks to achieve the above objectives. -S.O.R. - Gaz. of India. 16-5-1985, Pt.

Carriers Act, 1865 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1865

.....from responsibility is desirable or was intended. If. however, the word "only" be supplied after "anwerable" in the last line but three of the extract from the Railways Actas printed above, the Section becomes intelligible. It limits the liability of Railways Companies to the consequences of gross negligence or misconduct on the part of their agents or servants but declares that from this liability so limited they shall not be allowed to relieve themselves by any kind of contract. There cannot indeed be much doubt that the intention of the Legislature was to place all Railway Companies in what was once supposed to be the exact position of a carrier who had contracted for himself as favourably as the law of England would permit. It was, in fact. long supposed in England that. while a carrier could by contract relieve himself from most of his liabilities, his power of doing so slopped short of liability for negligence or misconduct. Such is the view of the law taken by Mr.Justice Storey in his "Commentaries on the Law of Bailnients" section 549. and such is under stood to be still the law in America. But a series of decisions in the English Courts overturned the older doctrine,.....

Hindu Gains of Learning Act, 1930 Complete Act

.....demoralising influence upon his character by inducing him to have recourse to dishonest subterfuges like benami transactions. Likewise, the present rule is not favourable to the growth of self-reliance among the dependent members of the family. In a rich family, it offers a premium to extravagance, idleness and perpetual discord. Its injustice is manifestly galling. Take, e.g., a case in which a father has three sons and incurs the same expenditure on their education. He sends them all to England to be educated for the 1.C.S. One is successful, the other two fail. Of the two who fail, one takes to trade, the other is unwilling to do any work and remains idle. The trader earns a large fortune, which the present law allows him to keep to himself, because his education in England was for the Civil Service and not for trade. But, out of the earnings of the Civilian, two shares are claimed, one by the trader and the other by the brother who has been idle. The trader keeps his own earnings and also takes a share of the Civilian's earnings. Take again a case in which three brothers are given by their father the same education for the same profession and at the same cost. Though they.....

Clause 4 (as to a wife's wages and earnings) is equivalent to the Married Women's Property Act (33 and 34 Vic., Chap. 93) section one. Clause 6 is copied from the first paragraph of section ten of that Act. It declares that any married woman may effect a policy of insurance on her own life or on her husband's life, on her own behalf, and that the amount assured shall be her separate property. As the law stands, if a wife effects such a policy (otherwise than out of her separate estate), and dies in her husband's lifetime, the husband, in the capacity of her administrator, becomes the absolute owner of the.....
