Practical Academic: Download the Expert Committee Report on Amendments to the Specific Relief Act

"I realise that some of my criticisms may be mistaken; but to refuse to criticize judgements for fear of being mistaken is to abandon criticism altogether... If any of my criticisms are found to be correct, the cause is served; and if any are found to be incorrect the very process of finding out my mistakes must lead to the discovery of the right reasons, or better reasons than I have been able to give, and the cause is served just as well."

-Mr. HM Seervai, Preface to the 1st ed., Constitutional Law of India.

Download the Expert Committee Report on Amendments to the Specific Relief Act

Followers of this blog are well-aware that the recent Expert Committee Report on the Amendments to the Specific Relief Act, 1963 was not in public domain. Despite several requests to the Law Ministry, the Report was kept away from public domain.

Pursuant to an Right to Information Act, 2005 application by this blawgger, the Ministry has sent a copy of the Report. We take this opportunity to thank the Deputy Secretary & CPIO of the Legislative Department to have acted in consonance with the letter and the spirit of the Right to Information Act, 2005 and disclosed the Report.

Readers can access a scanned copy of the Report from this link (pdf). Happy Reading!
