Medicine, adulteration of
Medicine, adulteration of. See ADULTERATION.It means modern scientific medicine in all its branches and includes surgery and obstetrics, but does not include veterinary medicine and surgery. [Indian Medical Council Act, 1956 (102 of 1956), s. 2 (f)]The definition of the word 'medicine' in s. 2(f) of the Indian Medical Council Act, 1956 is too wide to determine if it includes cardiology. It is also not necessary to go into the dictionary meaning of the expression as it is clear from the relevant Regulations that medicine and surgery are general subjects and Cardiology and Orthopaedics are their respective specialities. Where general subject such as medicine or surgery is being dealt with in a regulation, the specialist branch under it would be covered, though not vice versa, because if one wants to hold a post in the specialist branch he must of necessity have teaching experience in the specialist branch. Undisputably, one qualifying for M.D. (Medicine) has to learn the subject of Cardi...
Riot Damages Act, 1886
Riot Damages Act, 1886 (English) (49 &50 Vict. c. 38), providing compensation, out of the police rate, to any person sustaining damage by riot. From very early times (see the repealed acts scheduled to 7 & 8 Geo. 4, c. 27) compensation of some kind for damage by riot was recoverable from 'hundredors' (see HUNDREDORS), and the consolidating Act (7 & 8 Geo. 4, c. 31), regulated the procedure for obtaining the compensation, limiting the title to recover to cases where there had been a felonious demolition of property, and giving no compensa-tion for property stolen. A serious riot occurring in the metropolis on February 8th, 1886, and disclosing insufficiency in the law of compensation led very quickly to the Metropolitan Police Compensation Act, 1886 (49 & 50 Vict. c. 11), applicable to the metropolis only and retrospective, and shortly afterwards to the general Riot Damages Act, 1886, by which (1) the police district is substituted for the hundred as the area liable to compensation; (2)...

It is believed that the liability of the shareholders in chartered banks is in most if not in all cases limited to some amount fixed by the charter, generally twice the amount of their shares. Under the (English) Companies Act, the liability may be either limited or unlimited, and most banks registered under the old Companies Act of 1862 were unlimited until 1880, when many took advantage of the (English) Companies Act, 1879 (42 & 43 Vict. c. 76), to register anew as limited; see now Companies Act, 1929, ss. 321, 322, 359...
