Section 36. Power of Court to order forfeiture

CHAPTER VIII MISCELLANEOUS 34 . Rules to be made after publication .—Any power to make rules conferred by this Act is subject to the condition of the rules being made after previous publication: Provided that the Central Government may, in the public interest, by order in writing, dispense with the condition of previous publication in any case. 35 . Laying of rules before Parliament.— Every rule made under this Act shall be laid, as soon as may be after it is made, before each House of Parliament while it is in session for a total period of thirty days which may be comprised in one session or in two or more successive sessions, and if, before the expiry of the session immediately following the session or the successive sessions aforesaid, both Houses agree in making any modification in the rule, or both Houses agree that the rule should not be made, the rule shall thereafter have effect only in such modified form or be of no effect, as the case may be; so, however, that any such modification or annulment shall be without prejudice to the validity of anything previously done under that rule. 36. Power of Court to order forfeiture.— Where any person is convicted of an offence punishable under sub-section (1) of section 25 or under any rule made under clause (r) of sub-section (2) of section 10, the Court by which he is convicted may direct that the aircraft or article or substance, as the case may be, in respect of which the offence has been committed, shall be forfeited to the Central Government.
