Report No. 96
2.5. Converts' Marriage Dissolution Act, 1866.-
Special mention is also required of the Converts' Marriage Dissolution Act, 1866. On this Act also, the Law Commission forwarded long ago a Report to the Government, containing detailed recommendations for replacing this Act by a fresh legislative measure.1 This Report awaits implementation. The reasons for the recommendation are set out in detail in the Report. We have considered it unnecessary to mention that Act while enumerating the various Acts that need to be considered for repeal.2
