How can a judgment, decree, sentence, or order passed by a person appointed as a district judge before the commencement of the Twentieth Amendment Act, 1966 be considered valid?
A judgment, decree, sentence, or order passed by a person appointed as a district judge before the commencement of the Twentieth Amendment Act, 1966 can be considered valid if it was made by that person when they were appointed, posted, promoted, or transferred as a district judge in any State otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of Article 233 or Article 235. In other words, their appointment may not have been strictly in line with those provisions, but their actions while serving in the role are still deemed valid by the Act.
