How to use this volume
Solve the paper first, under exam conditions and against the clock. Then read the answers here and mark your own. Reading a solution before attempting the question feels productive and teaches very little, because recognising an answer is not the same as being able to write one.
Q.1.
Answer in two-three sentences 20 Marks
(1)What is the rule of Beneficial Construction?[2]
Answer
Beneficial construction, also called liberal or remedial construction, is the rule that a statute passed to confer a benefit or to remedy a defect must be construed liberally and in favour of the class it was meant to protect, so as to advance the remedy and suppress the mischief. Where two constructions are possible, the one that gives the fuller benefit is preferred.
