Language of Law
Note: - I. The question paper is divided in 2 parts i.e. Section - A and Section - B.
II. The Examinee is required to attempt 4 (four) questions from Section - A and 2 (two) questions from Section - B.
III. Figures in the margin indicate the marks.

(SECTION A) (04X15)
1. Simplify the following passages by using plain language:
Even where the dominant object of a law is to given effect to a Directive Principle. it is not every
provision af the law which is entitled to claim protection. The words used in the amended Article
31C are: "Law giving effect to the policy of the State towards securing all or any of the principles
laid down in Part IV" and these words, on a plain natural construction. do not include all the
provisions on the law but only those which give effect to the Directive Principle. But the
question is how to identify these provisions giving effect to the Directive Principle in order to
accord to them the protection of the amended Article 31C. The answer to this question is
analogically provided by the decision of this Court in Akadasi Padhan v. State of Orissa. There
the question was as to what was the precise connotation of the expression la relating to" a
State monopoly which occurs in Article 19(6). This Court held that "a law relating to" a State
monopoly cannot include all the provisions contained in such law but it must be construed to
mean, "the law relating to the monopoly in its absolutely essential features" and it is only those
provisions of the law "which are basically and essentially necessary for creating the State
monopoly" which are protected by Article 19(6). This view was reiterated in several subsequent
decisions of this Court. (I). would adopt the same approach in the construction of Article 31C
and hold that it is not every provision of a statute which, has been enacted with the dominant
object of giving effect to a Directive Principle, that it entitled to protection but only those
provisions of the statute which are basically and essentially necessary for giving effect to the.
Directive Principles are protected under the amended Article 31C. If there are any other
provisions in the statute which do not fall within this category, they would not be entitled to
protection and their validity would have to be judged reference to Articles 14 and 19. Where,
therefore, protection is claimed in respect of a statute under the amended Article 31C, the court
would have first to determine whether there is real and substantial connection between the law
and a Directive Principle and the predominant object of the law is to give effect to such
Directive Principle and if the answer to this question is in the affirmative, the court would then
have to consider which are the provisions of the law basically and essentially necessary for
giving effect to the Directive Principle and give protection of the amended Article 31C only to
those provisions. The question whether any particular provision of the law is basically and
essentially necessary for giving effect to the Directive Principle. would depend, to a large extent,
on how closely and integrally such provision is connected with the implementation on the
Directive Principle. If the court finds That a particular provision is subsidiary or incidental or not
essentially and integrally connected with the implementation of the Directive Principle or is of
such a nature that, though seemingly a part of the general design of the main provisions of the
statute, its dominant object is to achieve an unauthorised purpose, it would not enjoy the
protection of the amended Article 31C and would be liable to be struck down as invalid if it
violates Article 14 or 19.
P.T.O.
2. Simplify the following:
 When a contract has been broken, the party who suffers by such breach is entitled to receive, from
the party who has broken the contract, compensation for any loss or damage caused to him
thereby, which naturally arose in the usual course of things from such breach, or which the parties
knew, when they made the contract, to be likely to result from the breach of it. Such
compensation is not to be given for any remote and indirect loss or damage sustained by reason of
the breach. Compensation for failure to discharge obligation resembling those created by
contract.-When an obligation resembling those created by contract has been incurred and has not
been discharged, any person injured by the failure to discharge it is entitled to receive the same
compensation from the party in default, as if such person had contracted to discharge it and had
broken his contract. Explanation.-In estimating the loss or damage arising from a breach of
contract, the means which existed of remedying the inconvenience caused-by the non-
performance of the contract must be taken into account.
A contracts with B to make and deliver to B, by a fixed day, for a specified price, a certain piece
of machinery. A does not deliver the piece of machinery at the time specified, and in consequence
of this, B is obliged to procure another at a higher price than that which he was to have paid to A,
and is prevented from performing a contract which B had made with a third person at the time of
his contract with A (but which had not been then communicated to A), and is compelled to make
compensation for breach of that contract. A must pay to B, by way of compensation, the
difference between the contract price of the piece of machinery and the sum paid by B for
another, but not the sum paid by B to the third person by way of compensation.
3. Austin believed that law is a species of command. He further defined a command as an
intimation or expression of a wish to do or forbear from doing something, backed up by the
power to do harm to the actor in case he disobeys. Furthermore, the person to whom the
command is given is under a "duty" to obey it, and the threatened harm is defined as a "sanction."
Discuss.
4. While giving meaning to a legislative text, is it mandatory to argue that the meaning to be
ascribed to the text is one which was explicitly within the contemplation of the legislature while
enacting the legislation or is it sufficient to argue that the meaning to be given is the logical
extension of the intention of the legislature as deciphered from the legislative text. Critically
examine the given statement with the help of suitable illustrations.
5. Discuss the fallacies in law with the help of examples and relevant cases.
6. Write an essay on Universal Declaration of Linguistic Rights.
