The Odisha Expiring Laws Continuance Act, 1951

The Odisha Expiring Laws Continuance Act, 1951

This law allows temporary laws in Orissa to remain in effect without requiring a new bill to be passed immediately before the original expiration date, provided a continuation bill has been introduced. It applies to the whole state of Orissa and ensures the law remains valid by treating the renewal as if the law had started working from the moment the original expired. This prevents legal confusion by making the renewed act retroactive to the expiry date, preserving the intent and validity of the legislation during the interim period.
