See EXTENT.To extend means to enlarge, expand, lengthen, prolong to carry out further than its original limit. Thus extension ordinarily implies the continued existence of something to be extended.

Biswanath Banerjee, 1989 Supp (1) SCC 487: AIR 1989 SC 1834: 1989 (2) SCR 401....

Extension and renewal

Extension and renewal, to 'extend' means to enlarge, expand, lengthen, prolong, to carry out further than its original limit. 'Extension' according to Black's Law Dictionary, means enlargement of the main body; addition of something smaller than that to which it is attached; to lengthen or prolong. Thus 'extension' ordinarily implies the continued existence of something to be extended. The distinction between 'extension' and 'renewal' is chiefly that in the case of 'renewal', a new lease is required, while in the case of 'extension' the same lease continues in force during additional period by the performance of the stipulated act, Provash Chandra Dalui v. Biswanath Banerjee, AIR 1989 SC 1834 (1839). [Calcutta Thika Tenancy Act, (2 of 1949), s. 2(5)]...

Renewal

Renewal, Black's Dictionary, Sixth Edn., defines the word 'renewal' at p. 1299 thus: 'The act of renewing or reviving. A revival or rehabilitation of an expiring subject; that which is made a new or re-established. The substitution of a new right or obligation for another of the same nature. A change of something old to something new. To grant or obtain extension of.' In P. Ramanatha Aiyar's 'The Law Lexicon' (Reprint Edn. 1987), the word 're-newal' is defined at p. 1107 to mean 'a change of something old for something new'. The renewal of a 'licence' means 'a new licence granted by way of renewal'. The renewal of a negotiable bill or note is regarded simply as a prolongation of the original contract. The office of a 'renewal', as it is termed, of a life policy, is to prevent discontinuance or forfeiture. In Provash Chandra Dalui v. Biswanath Banerjee, 1989 Supp (1) SCC 487: (SCC at p. 496) in para 14, this Court drew the distinction between the meaning of the words extension and renew...

Terrorism

Terrorism, as ordinarily understood, means the act of terrorising, Muralidhar Sarangi v. New India Assurance Co. Ltd., (2000) 3 SCC 466.It may be possible to describe 'terrorism' as use of violence when its most important result is not merely the physical and mental damage of the victim but the prolonged psychological effect it produces or has the potential of producing on the society as a whole. There may be death, injury, or destruction of property or even deprivation of individual liberty in the process but the extent and reach of the intended terrorist activity travels beyond the effect of an ordinary crime capable of being punished under the ordinary penal law of the land and its main objective is to overawe the Government to disturb harmony of the society or 'terrorise' people and the society and not only those directly assaulted, with a view to disturb even tempo, peace and tranquillity of the society an create a sense of fear and insecurity.
