What are the implications of the Bombay Reorganisation Act, 1960?
The Bombay Reorganisation Act, 1960 (11 of 1960) led to the reorganization and division of the former State of Bombay into two new states: Gujarat and Maharashtra. This act resulted in changes to the composition of the Indian Parliament as well as the state legislatures affected by the reorganization. The implications of this act include the creation of new political boundaries, administrative structures, and institutions for the two newly-formed states, along with any necessary amendments or adjustments to existing legislation to account for these changes.
