The scan itself is mirrored into our own storage and served at /scan/a6c23fca-2465-4554-be68-5267eda3f944.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/216e7927-5b35-4a9b-8446-61b383aef03e/content).
