Civil19629 sections

This Act extends specific laws to territories transferred to Punjab while repealing others, ensuring legal continuity for residents. It applies to areas affected by the States Reorganisation Act of 1956, bringing existing rules and regulations into force in the new regions. The law protects existing rights, penalties, and legal proceedings from being invalidated by the change, allowing courts to interpret the laws appropriately for the new context. It also gives the state government the power to remove any difficulties that arise during this transition of legal jurisdiction.
