Article 243ZT

Part IXB — The Co-operative Societies · Constitution of India

Article 243ZT

Continuance of existing laws. Notwithstanding anything in this Part, any provision of any law relating to co-operative societies in force in a State immediately before the commencement of the Constitution (Ninety-seventh Amendment) Act, 2011, which is inconsistent with the provisions of this Part, shall continue to be in force until amended or repealed by a competent Legislature or other competent authority or until the expiration of one year from such commencement, whichever is less.

In plain wordsOld state co-operative laws that clashed with the 97th Amendment of 2011 stayed valid for at most one year, giving states time to update them to the new framework.
