The Calcutta Weekly Notes February 25 1946

1946

It is significant that the Secretary of State for India has said in a recent interview that " it was the intention of Britain to transfer power " and that transference of power would have to be made to the constitutional authority to be set up by the constitution-making body. [...] A correspondent from Narayanganj draws the attention of the authorities to the inconvenence suffered by lawyers and litigants in the mofussil on account of the new Indian Standard Time still being observed in the Courts. [...] Imposed during the War at the comparatively innocuous rate of one pice in the rupee and announced as a temporary war-time measure the tax instead of being withdrawn on the cessation of war bids fair to become a sort of permanent impostion. [...] There is another principle that there is no vicarious liablity in criminal law; the condition of the mind of the servant is not to be imputed to the master. [...] The fact that the prosecution has been santioned by the provincial Government must be proved according to law as it goes to the root of the jurisdiction of the Court.
