STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS "The need for a general revision of the three Acts, namely, the Indian Army Act, 1911, the India Navy Discipline Act, 1934 and the Indian Air Force Act, 1932, has been felt for some time past Some of the provisions of the existing Acts were already becoming out of date and insufficient for moders requirements, but after the 15th August, 1947, the need for revision became imperative for obvious sufficient and complete codes in themselves. The object was to make them as closely similar in form and arrangement of matter as the special requirements of each service might demand.
