Bare Act

The Bombay Maternity Benefit, Hyderabad Maternity Benefit, and Central Provinces and Berar Paternity Benefit (Repeal) Act, 1964

This law is a repealing act that applies to the entire state of Maharashtra. Its main purpose is to abolish three older state laws that provided maternity benefits to women workers. By repealing the Bombay, Hyderabad, and Central Provinces and Berar Maternity Benefit Acts, the government has consolidated these regulations into a single, unified framework. This change simplifies the legal landscape for employers and employees, ensuring that maternity benefits are governed by a single, current statute rather than multiple outdated ones.
