Report No. 250
68. Destructive Insects and Pests (Amendment and Validation) Act, Act 12 of 1992
Category: Public Health
Recommendation: Repeal
The Act amended the Destructive Insects and Pests Act, 1914. The 1914 Act has been recommended for repeal by the Law Commission of India in its 248th Report on Obsolete Laws: Warranting Immediate Repeal. This Act would no longer be relevant once the 1914 Act is repealed. Hence, the Central Government should repeal this Amendment and Validation Act of 1992 along with the 1914 Act.
