Statement of Objects and Reasons2

Consequent upon the re-organisation of States, the Abu area was merged in the State in the State of Rajasthan but the Bombay Prohibition Act, 1949 of the erstwhile State of Bombay continued to be in operation in that area As such the provisions of the Rajasthan Excise Act, 1950 (Rajasthan Act II of 1950) could not be made applicable to the said area.

With a view to obtain uniformity in the application of laws us all areas of the State, it was considered necessary to extend the Rajasthan Excise Act 1950 to that area. Since the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly was not in session and the Governor was satisfied that circumstances existed which rendered it necessary for him to take immediate action, he made and promulgated the Rajasthan Excise (Amending and Extending) Ordinance,1978, on the 1st day of September, 1978.

The bill seeks to replace the said ordinance |
