Section 1, which normally speaks about applicability, of the Public Servants Inquiries Act 1850, itself, states:
"1. Repeal of Acts Repealed by the Repealing Act, 1870 (14 of 1870), sec. 1 and Sch., Part II."
But this Repealing Act, 1870 (14 of 1870)is not traceable.
However, it may be pointed out that after adoption of the Constitution of india, the Rules for Public Servants Discipline and Appeal Rules, as well as the Prevention of Corruption Act , 1988, were framed to be applicable to the public servants for inquiries and prosecution, etc.
