Questions about Section 46
How do I find court cases under Section 46 of the POCSO Act?
In judgments and charge sheets this section is written several ways, and each form finds a different set of orders. These search the full text of every order eCourtsIndia holds, best matches first: Pocso Act 2012 46, section 46 Pocso Act 2012, section 46 of the POCSO Act. Each opens the full list of orders on eCourtsIndia, where it can be narrowed by court, year and outcome.

Its own text turns on Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act 2 (Definitions), section 2, so none of them can safely be read on its own.
