After section 15 of the said Act, the following section shall be inserted, namely:--

"15A. The State Government may, at any time before an award is made by the Collector under section 11, call for and examine the record of any order passed by the Collector or of any inquiry or proceedings of the Collector, for the purpose of satisfying itself as to the legality or propriety of any order passed and as to the regularity of such proceedings. If, in any case, it shall appear to the State Government that any order or proceedings so called for should be modified, annulled or reversed, it may pass such order thereon as it deems fit."
