Maharashtra Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act, 1960 Complete Act

State: Maharashtra

Year: 1960

.....spoliation, disfigurement, destruction, removal, disposal or export." 2. The present position is that in this State the Hyderabad area has a special Act viz. Hyderabad Act VIII of 1337 Fasli in respect of monuments not declared to be of national importance. In the rest of the State the subject is governed by the Central Act of 1994. In the last Act all executive power vests in the Central Government. Again, the Union Government in 1951 declared certain monuments to be of national importance by Act LXXI of 1951. Thereafter, very recently by Act XXIV of 1958 a declaration of monuments of national importance was again made, and the 1951 Act replaced. It is obviously desirable now to have a self-contained Act in respect of those matters which relate to the ancient and historical monuments and archaeological sites and remains not covered by the Central field, and also to unify the existing laws on the subject in this State. The Bill attempts to achieve this purpose. For Statement of Objects and Reasons, see Maharashtra Government Gazette, 1960. Part V, page 90, 3. Important clauses of the Bill are explained below:- Clause 2. - The definitions of "ancient and historical monuments".....

Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act, 1958 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1958

.....Monuments Preservation Act, 1904, and the Ancient and Historical Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains (Declaration of National Importance) Act, 1951. The Act of 1951 merely declares certain monuments, etc., to be of national importance and the Act of 1904 applies also to such monuments. While the Constitution has distributed the subject-matter under three different heads the Act of 1904 governs all ancient monuments whether falling in the Central field or the State field, and vests all executive power in the Central Government. The position of the existing law relating to ancient monuments is far from satisfactory. The present Bill purports to be a self contained law at the Centre which will apply exclusively to ancient monument, etc., of national importance falling under Entry 67 of List I and to archaeological sites and remains falling under Entry 40 in the Concurrent List. Simultaneously, the State Governments would be advised to enact a similar law in respect of ancient monuments, etc., falling under Entry 12 in the State List. In this manner, the Central and State fields will be clearly demarcated and the existing confusion and overlapping of jurisdiction arising.....
