Army Act, 1950 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1950

.....British Act which one mainly to the peculiar traditions of the British Navy, is materially different in many respects from the British Army Act and Air Force Acts. The revision of the Naval Discipline Act has, therefore, proved a more difficult problem. In the United Kingdom, a special committee has been appointed to examine the question of revision of the British Naval Act It was felt that it would be an advantage to await the report of that committee and benefit by its recommendations, The revision of the Naval Discipline Act has, therefore, been suspended for the present. It is expected that the Committee's report will be available within the next few months, after which the revision of the Naval Discipline Act will be taken up. It is, however, not considered necessary to delay the revision of the Army and Air Force Acts any longer and they are therefore being introduced during this session of the Legislature. 3. The main objects of the revision of the Army Act are (a) to make it self-sufficient by incorporating the relevant provisions from certain other related enactments; (b) to adapt the existing provisions to suit the new constitutional set up and present day.....

Bombay Highways Act, 1955, (Maharashtra) Section 19B

Title: Determination of Amount Payable as Compensation

State: Maharashtra

Year: 1955

.....the Bombay Highways Act, 1955, on the lines of the amendment to the National Highway Act, 1956 carried out by the Government of India by the National Highways Laws (Amendment) Act, 1997. The main impediment in the speedy implementation of the Highways projects has been the inordinate delay in the acquisition of land under the existing provisions of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894. In order to remove this procedural delay and the delays resulting from litigation and to expedite the process of land acquisition, it is proposed that once the State Government declares that the land is required for the public purpose for construction or for development of a highway, that land will vest in the Government and such declaration cannot be challenged in a Court, and only the amount by way of compensation will have to be paid, and any dispute relating to compensation will be subject to adjudication through the process of arbitration only.- [Mah. Act No. 37 of 1999.]

Navy Act, 1957 Complete Act

.....to the Indian Naval Forces. When the constitutional changes took place, action was taken to adapt this Act and it now appears as a self-contained Act. 2. This Act dealt largely with disciplinary provisions. There were no statutory provisions concerning the various matters of administration, enrolment, grant of commissions etc. 3. It was long considered that this lacuna should be filled and when the constitutional changes took place it became evident that it would be necessary to have a consolidating statute on the subject. In the meantime, in 1950, the revised Army Act and Air Force Act were passed by Parliament. It was not possible at that time to draft a revised Navy Bill as the present Act was modelled mainly on the corresponding British Act. In U.K., a special committee had been appointed to examine the question of the revision of the British Naval Code. It was thought that it would be an advantage to await the report of that Committee. The present draft has been made taking into account the report of that Committee. 4. In drawing up the present Bill, the provisions of the Army and Air Force Acts have been borne in mind, but changes have had to be accepted on account of.....
