The Karnataka Repealing (Regional Laws) Act, 2011
General20116 sections
This Act repeals specific regional laws that were in force in the former states of Bombay, Coorg, Hyderabad, Madras, and Mysore before 1956 and are now part of Karnataka. It applies to the Karnataka state area. The law matters because it removes outdated legislation from the books, but it includes important protections ensuring that repealing these laws does not invalidate existing rights, ongoing legal proceedings, or actions already taken under them. It preserves the effect of amendments made by the repealed laws and validates government actions taken before the repeal.
