(2) If in the opinion of the State Government, the Authority fails or neglects to perform the duty within the period so fixed for its performance under sub-section (1), it shall be lawful for the State Government, to supersede and reconstitute the Authority. (3) After the suppression of the Authority and until it is reconstituted, the powers, duties and functions of the Authority under this Act shall be carried on by the State Government or by such officer or officers as the State Government may, appoint for this purpose.
