Bare Act
The Rajasthan Live-Stock Improvement Act, 1958
This Act establishes the legal framework for improving livestock in the State of Rajasthan. It allows the State Government to appoint different commencement dates for the remaining provisions in various areas based on local needs for improvement and administrative convenience. Applying to the whole state, it mandates immediate commencement and provides the authority to regulate the enhancement of livestock in the region.
