Short title, commencement and application :- (1) These rules may be called PAPAIN (Grading and Marking) Rules, 1979.

Definitions :- In these rules, unless the context otherwise requires: (1) 'Agricultural Marketing Adviser" means the Agricultural Marketing Adviser to the Government of India.

Comment Definition of a word in another statute.- It is not only impermissible but, HJBBidwgproas whilst interpreting one Act, to travel beyond the same and apply definities of other Acts except those of General Clauses Act, 1897 or to seek the neillgofawwd used in an Act in the definition clauses of another statute even dnqik 4ofag with cognate matter by the same legislature. It has been so held anih-iMildy way back in Laurence Arthur Adamson v. Melbourne and Metropolitan Board of works [A.I.R. 1929 P.C 181] and Jainarayan Rarnkisan v. Motiram Gangaram [AIR 1949 Nag. 34]. The fallacy of adverting to definitions in other statutes for entirely different purposes can only lead one to greater pitfalls. 3.
