The scan itself is mirrored into our own storage and served at /scan/479565eb-a7d1-408f-901f-ba4efe00a20a.pdf, so the reading here can be checked against the page it came from without depending on India Code's own copy staying where it is (it was at https://indiacode.gov.in/server/api/core/bitstreams/51d2612f-452a-44d5-96df-312636f4d055/content).
