The book presents section –wise commentaries on the Act as it exists and provides historical backdrop by tracing the amendments made in the Act since its enactment. It contains the text of all the amendment Bills and the amendment Acts.
There are certain States that have made their own rules under the Act. These rules are not readily available, and therefore have been included in the book. The report of the Select Committee and two reports of the Law Commission of India on the Act have also been included in the book.
Text of certain notifications which have been subject matter of litigation, has been culled out from the reported cases by way of illustrations, and the relevant courts’ rulings thereon are briefly stated to focus on such aspects as have been questioned for being objectionable. Extracts of the terms of references of various commissions from the reported cases are also included in the book to indicate the range of the subjects of inquiries.
The book will be of use and interest to a wide cross-section of people, particularly those concerned directly or indirectly with commissions of inquiry. It will greatly serve the cause of inquiry commissions in the country.
