functioning immediately before that day, subject to the provisions of this section and to such directions as 
may, from time to time, be issued by the Central Government. 

(2) Any directions issued by the Central Government under sub-section (1) in respect of the Board or 
the  Corporation  shall  include  a  direction  that  the  Act  under  which  the  Board  or  the  Corporation  was 
constituted shall,  in  its  application  to  that  Board  or  Corporation,  have  effect  subject to such  exceptions 
and modifications as the Central Government thinks fit. 

(3) The Board or the Corporation referred to in sub-section (1) shall cease to function as from, and 
shall  be  deemed  to  be  dissolved  on,  the  1st  day  of  October,  1960,  or  such  earlier  date  as  the  Central 
Government may, by order, appoint; and upon such dissolution, its assets, rights and liabilities shall be 
apportioned between the State of Maharashtra and the State of Gujarat in such manner as may be agreed 
upon between them within one year of the dissolution of the Board or the Corporation, as the case may 
be, or if no agreement is reached, in such manner as the Central Government may by order determine. 

(4)  Nothing  in  the  preceding  provisions  of  this  section  shall  be  construed  as  preventing  the 
Government of the State of Maharashtra or, as the case may be, the Government of the State of Gujarat 
from  constituting,  at  any  time  on  or  after  the  appointed  day,  a  State  Electricity  Board  or  a  State 
Warehousing  Corporation  for  that  State  under  the  provisions  of  the  Act  relating  to  such  Board  or 
Corporation;  and  if  such  a  Board  or  Corporation  is  so  constituted  in  either  of  the  States  before  the

generation or supply of electric power or the supply of water for any area or in regard to the execution of 
any project for such generation or supply has been or is likely to be modified to the disadvantage of that 
area by reason of the fact that it is, by virtue of the provisions of Part II, outside the State in which the 
power stations and other installations for the generation and supply of such power, or the catchment area, 
reservoirs  and  other  works  for  the  supply  of  water,  as  the  case  may  be,  are  located,  the  Central 
Government  may  give  such  directions  as  it  deems  proper  to  the  State  Government  or  other  authority 
concerned for the maintenance, so far as practicable, of the previous arrangement.

passed  by  a  majority  of  the  shareholders  present  and  voting,  the  scheme  shall  be  submitted  to  the              
Central Government for its sanction.

the  Government  of  the  State  of  Gujarat  from  constituting,  at  any  time  on  or  after  the  appointed  day,  a
