This Act governs the application of state laws to the Shillong (Rifle Range and Umlong) Cantonments and the Scheduled areas. It applies to the Scheduled areas and the Khasi and Jaintia Hills District, ensuring that laws previously in force in the Hills District now extend to the Scheduled areas. The legislation assimilates these laws to remove legal doubts and provides the State Government with the power to address any difficulties that arise during the transition, thereby ensuring a consistent legal framework for these regions.
