STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
The Public Employment ( Requirement as to Residence ) Act , 1957 , repeals all the laws in force in the States and Union territories with regard to requirements as to residence for purposes of any employ- ment or appointment under the State , any local or other authority , but section 3 of the Act empowered the Central Government to make rules prescribing requirements as to residence within Telangana area of Andhra Pradesh or the Union territories of Himachal Pradesh , Manipur or Tripura for appointments in subordinate services . Sec- tion 5 of the Act fixed a period of five years from the commencement of the Act during which the domicile rules framed under section 3 in respect of the above mentioned areas were to remain in force . Since the Act came into force on the 21st March , 1959 , the domicile rules framed under section 3 will cease to be operative with effect from the 21st March , 1964 .
2. It is considered desirable , after consultation with the Govern- ment of Andhra Pradesh and the Administrations of the Union territories concerned , that the domicile rules framed in respect of the areas mentioned above should be kept in force for a further period of five years . The Bill seeks to achieve this object .
