PART B STATES (LAWS) ACT, 1951
3 of 1951
22nd February, 1951
STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS 'For the purpose of improving the administration of Part B States and for placing them. as far as possible on a bar with A States, it is necessary that all the more important Central Acts falling within the Union and Concurrent Lists should be extended to Part B States also. With this end in view, a number of such Central Acts has already been extended to Part B States generally or to Part B States except the State of Jammu and Kashmir, as the case may be, according to the legislative competence of Parliament, but a large number of Acts still remain to be similarly extended.
Moreover, with the financial integration of Part B States, the Central Government has assumed responsibility for the administration of various subjects in those States, and it is, therefore, a matter of some urgency that the remaining Central Acts requiring to be extended are extended to Part B States as soon as possible.
2. The present Bill is intended to give effect to the above proposal. The Acts and Ordinances listed in the Schedule to this Bill have been prepared in consultation with the administrative departments concerned, and the view of Part B States with regard to the extension of these Acts and Ordinances have also been obtained.-Gaz., of Ind., 25-11- 1950, Pt. II, S. 2, p. 384.
