Hindu
Hindu, The historical and etymological genesis of the word 'Hindu' has given rise to a controversy amongst ideologists; but the view generally accepted by scholars appears to be that the word 'Hindu' is derived from the river Sindhu otherwise known as Indus which flows from the Punjab. 'That part of the great Aryan race', says Monier Williams, 'which immigrated from Central Asia, through the mountain passes into India, settled first in the districts near the river Sindhu (now called the Indus). The Persians pronounced this word Hindu and named their Aryan brethren Hindus. The Greeks, who probably gained their first ideas of India from the Persians, dropped the hard aspirate, and called the Hindus 'Indoi'. ('Hindulsm' by Monler Williams, p.1.)'. The Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics, Vol. VI, has described 'Hinduism' as the title applied to that form of religion which prevails among the vast majority of the present population of the Indian Empire (p. 686). As Dr. Radhakrishnan has obs...
Judgment
Judgment [fr. judgment, Fr.], judicial determination; decision of a Court.Under the former practice of the superior Courts, this term was usually applied only to the Common Law Courts, the term 'decree' being in general use in the Court of Chancery.

Consultation
Consultation, in Words and Phrases (Permanent Edition, 1960, Volume 9, page 3) to 'consult' is defined as 'to discuss something together, to deliberate'. Corpus Juris Secundum (Volume 16A, Edn. 1956, page 1242) also says that the word 'consult' is frequently defined as meaning 'to discuss something together, or to deliberate'. By giving an opportunity to consultation or deliberation the purpose thereof is to enable the Judges to make their respective points of view known to the others and discuss and examine the relative merits of their view, High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan v. P.P. Singh, (2003) 4 SCC 239: AIR 2003 SC 1029 (1038).

Exemption, permission
Exemption, permission, Foreign Exchange Regula-tion Act, uses diverse words like, 'authorise', 'exempt' and 'permission' in different parts.

But the word 'permission' is a word of wide import. 'Permission' in this s. means only leave to do some act which but for the leave would be illegal. In this sense, exemption is just one way of giving leave, Dharrajamal Gobindram v. Sharmji Kalidas, AIR 1961 SC 1285 (1290). [Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, (7 of 1947), ss. 21, 5]...
