Orissa (Non–Government Colleges, Junior Colleges and Higher Secondary Schools) Grant in aid Order, 1994 – Orissa (Non– Government Colleges, Junior Colleges and Higher Secondary Schools) Grant in aid Order, 2004 – Repeal of Order of 1994, by the Order of 2004 – Effect of – Held: It is clear from Paragraph 4 of the Order of 2004 that in case a college is receiving grant in aid, with respect to a post, shall continue to receive it under the Order of 1994, however, in case it was not receiving the grant in aid as saving of the Order of 1994 is only entitled for block grant under Paragraph 3(1), not eligible for receiving the grant in aid under the Order of 1994 – Saving of Order of 1994 is for a limited purpose that the institution shall continue to receive grant in aid concerning the posts which had been sanctioned before the repeal of the order of 1994 – It is apparent on consideration of Paragraph 4 of order of 2004 that only saving of the right is to receive the block grant and only in case grant in aid had been received on or before the repeal of the Order of 2004, it shall not be affected and the Order of 1994 shall continue only for that purpose and no other rights are saved. Repeal: Effect of repeal – Held: What is unaffected by the repeal of a statute is a right acquired or accrued and not mere hope or expectation of or liberty to apply for acquiring a right – If under some repealed enactment, a right has been given, but on investigation in respect of a right is necessary whether such right should be or should not be given, no such right is saved – After repeal, an advantage available under the repealed Act to apply and obtain relief is not a right which is saved when the application was necessary and it was discretionary to grant the relief and investigation was required whether relief should be granted or not – Repeal would not save the right to obtain such a relief – Para 4 of the 2004 Order, repealing and saving of Order of 1994, no such right is saved in case grant in aid was not being received at the time of repeal nor it is provided that by applying under the repeal of the order of 1994, its benefits can be claimed – There was no vested, accrued or absolute right to claim grant in aid under the Act or the Order of 1994. Constitution of India: Art. 14 – Equality – Negative equality – Concept of – Held: There is no concept of negative equality u/ Art. 14 – In case the person has a right, he has to be treated equally, but where right is not available a person cannot claim rights to be treated equally – Negative equality when the right does not exist, cannot be claimed. |

It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources.
