The Orissa Weights and Measures (Delhi Repeal) Act, 1958
The Orissa Weights and Measures (Delhi Repeal) Act, 1958, simplifies trade regulations in Delhi by replacing older measurement standards. It officially repeals the Orissa Weights and Measures Act of 1943 as it applied to the Union territory of Delhi, introducing the newer Rajasthan Weights and Measures (Enforcement) Act instead. This law affects businesses and individuals handling regulated goods in the capital. It matters because it provides legal continuity during the transition. Even though the old law is removed, previous rights, ongoing investigations, and penalties remain enforceable, ensuring that legal obligations are not erased while measurement standards are updated.
