Substantial part, might suggest a quantitative test, or at least the ability to identify some discrete part which, or quantitative or qualitative grounds, can be regarded as substantial, it is clear upon the authorities that neither is the correct test, L.B.

Part
Part, 'part' does not necessarily mean a substantial part and that it will be open to the court in every case which comes up before it to examine whether the contribution made by the State satisfies the requirement of the law; Somawanti v. State of Punjab, AIR 1963 SC 151 (169). [Land Acquistion Act, 1894, s. 6(1) Proviso]The word 'part' must mean an appreciable amount and not an insignificant one. The 'part' in other words, must be substantial part. What is substantial would depend upon the facts and circumstances of each case, Municipal Corporation of Delhi v. Children Book Trust, (1992) 3 SCC 390 AIR 1992 SC 1456 (1471). [Delhi Municipal Corporation Act, 1957 (66 of 1957), s. 115 (4)(a), proviso]Means a Part of this Constitution.

Copyright
Copyright, an incorporeal right, being the exclusive privilege of printing, reprinting, selling, and publishing is own original work which the statute law first gave to an author in 1709, by 8 Anne, c. 19, for the term of fourteen years. Whether the right exited at Common Law is a long-vexed and still undetermined question. See Jeffries v. Boosey, (1854) 4 HLC 815. There is no copyright in an illegal or immoral publication, Southey v. Sherwood, (1817) 2 Mer 435; Stockdale v. Onwhyn, (1826) 5 B&C 173.The law of copyright now depends mainly on the (English) Copyright Act,1911 (1 & 2 Geo. 5, c. 46) (July 1, 1912), and 'no person shall be entitled to copyright or any similar right in any literary dramatic, musical, or artistic work, whether published or unpublished, otherwise than under and in accordance with the provisions of this Act, or of any other statutory enactment for the time being in force' (s. 31).By sub-s. 2 of s. 1 of this Act 'copyright' is thus defined:--For the purposes of ...

Law of Property Act, 1925 (English)
Law of Property Act, 1925 (English) 915 Geo. 5,c. 20), with amending Acts, 1926, 1929 and 1932 (cited together as the Law of Property Acts, 1925 to 1932), has consolidated and effected changes in the land laws with the object of simplifying the transfer and conveyance of land. An important change was the abolition of all legal estates or tenures in land, except an estate in fee simple in possession, and a term of years absolute in or in certain incorporeal hereditaments arising out of annexed to or charged upon the legal estate in land. Any number of these legal estates can exist in respect of the same piece of land or incorporeal hereditament; for instance, land may be held in fee simple, leased and mortgaged at the same time. all other estate and interests inland are reduced to equitable interests. All mortgages of the same legal estate under the statutory conditions are legal estates. None being for the whole fee simple or the term, but each for a term taken out of the fee or origin...

Substantial question of law
Substantial question of law, the proper test for determining whether a question of law raised in the case is substantial would, in our opinion, be whether it is of general public importance or whether it directly and, substantially affects the rights of the parties and if so whether it is either an open question in the sense that it is not finally, settled by this court or by the Privy Council or by the Federal Court or is not free from difficulty or calls for discussion of alternative views. If the question is settled by the highest court or the general principles to be applied in determining the question are well-settled and there is a mere question of applying those principles or that the plea raised is palpably absurd the question would not be a substantial question of law, Chunilal V. Mehta v. Century Spq & Mfg. Co. Ltd., AIR 1962 SC 1314 (1318): 1962 Supp (3) SCR 549. [Constitution of India, Art. 133(1)]What is a substantial question of law would certainly depend upon fact and ci...
Education
Education. Mr. Forster's Elementary Education Act, 1870 (English) (33 & 34 Vict. c. 75), is the starting point in the history of the provision by legislation of a general system of education. Before this date education had been dealt with either as a series of individual problems in respect of which provisions were made for the education of special classes of persons, or by executive, as opposed to legislative methods, as, for example, by a system of grants in aid. This Act was followed by a series of Acts, known collectively as the Education Acts, 1870 to 1919, which together established a system of free and compulsory elementary education of a non-denominational character. The initial Act established 'school boards' with powers of building and maintaining elementary schools and of regulating the attendance of school children between the ages of 5 and 13. The El. Ed. Act, 1876, declared 'the duty of the parent of every child to cause such child to receive efficient elementary educatio...
