Inconsistent

Inconsistent, 'inconsistent', according to Black's Legal Dictionary, means mutually repugnant or contradictory; contrary, the one to the other so that both cannot stand, but the acceptance or establishment of the one implies the abrogation or abandonment of the other'. So we have to see whether mutual co-existence between s. 34 of the Bonus Act and s. 3(b) of the U.P. Act is impossible.
