Report No. 250
15. Bombay Public Security Measures (Delhi Amendment) Act, Act 52 of 1948
Category: Criminal Justice
Recommendation: Repeal
The Act amended the Bombay Public Security Measures Act, 1947 as extended to the Province of Delhi. The text of the Bombay Public Security Measures Act, 1947 is not available on the Law Ministry's website, or from any other readily available source, an indication that it is not in use. Neither are there any other documented instances where this Act has been used in the last few decades. The Delhi Amendment Act has also now fallen into disuse. Therefore, the Central Government should repeal this Act.
