.....(10 and 11 Geo. V. C. 75), but the latter Statute does not apply to British India. It has, for some time past, been recognised that it is unsatisfactory to have two separate laws in force simultaneously in India. Further, although the British Act of 1911 is in force in India difficulties arise in applying it because of the use in it of English common law terms and so on. For these reasons it is desirable that there should be a single consolidated Act applicable to Indian conditions and the desirability of this has been emphasized by the passing of the British Act of 1920 which has considerably amended the Act of 1911, but is not applicable to India. The provisions of the British Act of 1911are more effective, particularly in the matter of the protection of military secrets than the Indian enactments, and they have been further strengthened by the enactment of the amending statute of 1920, which is based on experience gained during the War. It is considered desirable; therefore, that the law in India should be assimilated to that in force in the United Kingdom and the object of this Bill is to consolidate the provisions of the British Acts of 1911 and 1920 and to enact them in.....
