Delegation of subsidiary or ancillary measure
Delegation of subsidiary or ancillary measure, when a legislature is given plenary power to legislate on a particular subject there must also be an implied power to make laws incidental to the exercise of such power. It is a fundamental principle of constitutional law that everything necessary to the exercise of a power is included in the grant of the power. A legislature cannot certainly strip itself of its essential functions and vest the same on an extraneous authority. The primary duty of law making has to be discharged by the legislature itself but delegation may be resorted to as a subsidiary or an ancillary measure, Edward Mills Co. v. State of Ajmer, AIR 1955 SC 25 (32) (Constitution of India, Art. 245)....

Agriculture
Agriculture, the term 'agriculture' has been defined in various dictionaries both in the narrow sense and in the wider sense. In the narrow sense agriculture is cultivation of the field. In the wider sense it comprises all activities in relation to land including horticulture, forestry, breeding and rearing of livestock, dairying, butter and cheese-making, husbandry, etc. Whether the narrower or the wider sense of the term 'agriculture' should be adopted in a particular case depends not only upon the provisions of the various statutes in which the same occurs but also upon the facts and circumstances of each case, Maheshwari Seed Farm v. T.N. Electricity Board, (2004) 4 SCC 705 (711): AIR 2004 SC 2341.Agriculture includes horticulture, fruit growing, seed growing, dairy farming and livestock breeding and keeping, the use of land as grazing land, meadow land, market gardens and nursery grounds, and the use of land for woodlands where that use is ancillary to the framing of land for othe...

Commercial establishment
Commercial establishment, in the definition of a Commercial Establishment in s. 2 cl. 3 of the U.P. Shops and Commercial Eastblishment Act, 1947, the clerical and other establishments of a factory to whom the provisions of the Factories Act, 1934, do not apply, are included in the connotation of that expression. It is true that the reference in the definition by which clerical and other establish-ments of factories are included is to the Factories Act of 1934, but by virtue of s. 8 of the General Clauses (1987 10 of 1897), it must be construed as a reference to the provisions of the Factories Act LXIII of 1948 which repealed the Factories Act of 1934 and re-enacted it. It is difficult to say that field workers who are employed in guiding, supervising and controlling the growth and supply of sugarcane to be used in the factory are employed either in the precincts of the factory or in the premises of the factory; and if these workers are not employed in a factory, the provisions of the F...
