1942

The effect of such miortune overtaking a Government cannot be nfined to the territorial limits of its juriction but must in the very nature of things tend to neighbouring areas particularly hen such neighbouring areas are the urisdiction of a Government under the same sovereignty. [...] It is useless to conceal the act that the fall of Burma was causing great anxiety among the people of India and they were nervously looking for some sign of the shape of things to come in rgard to the Burma Government. [...] In other words is that alone to be taken as the binlug law which emerges from a reading tgether of the law as declared by the Federal Court and as declared by the Privy Council so that that part of the Federal Court view as is opposed to the Privy Council view is eliminated? [...] The Gold Coast Colony has a Code and the definition of sedition in that Code is the same as in the statute of India. [...] The Privy Council interpreted that definition and laid down the general principle that where sedition has been given a local meaning in the laws of a particular country the words of the actual definition will rule and the general principles of English law cannot be drawn upon.
