Chapter VII MISCELLANEOUS.

All moneys realised as fees for licences or written permission issued under this Act, and all sums paid for the service of processes by Police officers, or all rewards, forfeitures and penalties or shares thereof which are payable to any Police officer giving information or for detecting

Any order or notification issued or published under this Act by the Government or by a Magistrate or officer, the publication and issue thereof, may be proved by the Official Gazette in which such order or notification is published or by a copy thereof signed by such Magistrate or officer and by him certified to be a true copy of an original order or notification issued according to the section of this Act applicable thereto.

No rule, order, direction, adjudication, inquiry or notification made or published, and no act done under the provisions of this Act or under any rules made under this Act, or which may be deemed to be in conformity to the same, shall be deemed illegal, void, invalid or insufficient by reason of not being in the prescribed form, or any defect in the publication or any irregularity of procedure.

(1) If any rule or order made by the Government in pursuance of the provisions herein contained and imposing on the public or a particular class of persons the responsibility to perform any duty or act, or requiring them or those under their control to do an act in the manner specified in the said rule or order, it shall be competent to any person interested, to apply to the Government through the Secretary concerned to annul, alter or amend such rule or order stating that the same is unlawful or oppressive. (2) If such an application has been wholly or in part rejected or if after the lapse of four months no answer thereto or decision thereon has been received from or published by the Government, it shall be competent to the person interested to institute a suit against the Government for a declaration that such order or rule is unlawful either wholly or in part. Any such rule or order finally adjudged by a Court to be unlawful shall be annulled or so altered or amended as to make it conformable to law.

(1) Any written permission or licence granted under this Act to any person, shall specify the period and locality for which, and the conditions and restrictions subject to which, the person to whom the permission or licence is granted shall act, and shall be signed by the [Commissioner of City Police, Hyderabad]; and such fee shall be charged therefor as may be prescribed by rules made under this Act in this behalf. (2) Any written permission or licence granted under this Act may be suspended or revoked by the [Commissioner of City Police, Hyderabad] if the person to whom the written permission or licence has been granted infringes or evades compliance with its conditions and restrictions, or is convicted of any offence in any matter which relates to such licence or written permission. (3) When any such licence or written permission is suspended or revoked or when the period for which the same was granted has expired, the person to whom the same was granted shall be deemed to be without a licence or permission, until the order of suspension or revocation is cancelled by the [Commissioner of City Police, Hyderabad] or until the same is renewed. (4) Every person to whom any licence or written permission has been granted shall, while the licence or written permission remains in force, at all reasonable times produce the same before a Police officer when required.

Any notification required to be published under this Act, shall be in writing and shall be published by affixing in any conspicuous place in the locality where it is intended to be published, or by proclaiming the same with beat of drum, or by advertising the same in any local newspaper or by any other means which the [Commissioner of City Police, Hyderabad] may think fit or by any two or more of the aforesaid means as may be suitable.

Whenever under this Act any act or omission or the validity of any act depends upon the consent, approval, opinion or satisfaction of the [Commissioner of City Police, Hyderabad] or of any other Police officer, a document signed by the [Commissioner of City Police, Hyderabad] or by such Police officer, purporting to set forth consent, approval, opinion or satisfaction shall be deemed sufficient evidence thereof.

Save any summonses, warrants, or search warrants, required, by the provisions of this Act or the rules made thereunder, to be signed by the [Commissioner of City Police, Hyderabad] every licence or written permission or notification or document shall be deemed to be duly signed if it bears a facsimile of his signature stamped thereon.
