Section 14 of the Prevention of Black-marketing and Maintenance of Supplies of Essential Commodities Act, 1980 is stated to be without prejudice to which provision?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Section 14(1) begins "Without prejudice to the provisions of section 21" of the General Clauses Act, 1897, so the general power to rescind or vary an order survives alongside the specific power of revocation. The opening words refer neither to s.3 or s.13 of the Act nor to Article 22.
