The Telangana General Clauses (Amendment and Supplementary) Act, 1950

General19504 sections

This Act standardizes how legal terms and legislative rules are interpreted across laws, regulations, orders, and forms in the region of Hyderabad and Telangana. It specifies that the rules of statutory construction set out in the regional General Clauses Act apply retroactively and continuously to all Hyderabad state enactments and administrative rules. Additionally, it updates fundamental legal definitions, such as government, financial year, month, and year, aligning them with national standards established under India's central General Clauses Act of 1897. By repealing older conflicting regulations, it ensures legal clarity, consistency, and administrative uniformity for government bodies, legal professionals, and the general public.
