Bare Act

The Waste Lands (Claims) (Bombay Repeal) Act, 1947

This Act officially ends the application of two older laws, the Waste Lands (Claims) Act of 1863 and the Waste Lands (Claims) (Validation) Act of 1865, specifically within the Province of Bombay. Its main purpose is to remove these specific legislative measures from the legal code in that region. However, the law includes important savings provisions that ensure the repeal does not undo any rights, obligations, or legal actions that have already taken place or been finalized. This means the change is purely procedural for future matters while preserving the legal status of past transactions and claims.
