The Tamil Nadu Repealing (Second) Act, 2023

General20235 sections

The Tamil Nadu Repealing Second Act of 2023 officially removes one hundred and seventy-five obsolete and redundant laws enacted in the state between 1973 and 2017. Applying to the entire state of Tamil Nadu, this legislation cleans up the legal framework by discarding outdated amendment acts whose changes are already integrated into the primary laws. This matters to citizens and legal professionals because it declutters the legal system, reduces confusion, and ensures the law remains modern. Crucially, the act protects previous actions, ensuring that rights, liabilities, and legal proceedings initiated under the repealed laws remain fully valid and unaffected.
