The text, as the department published it

Read from the department’s own PDF, linked below, and reproduced without editing. Line breaks and spacing are ours; the words are not. The Hindi of the bilingual gazette is not reproduced: these files use a legacy Devanagari font that does not survive extraction, and a garbled transliteration would be worse than none. It is in the department’s file. For anything you rely on, read the file itself.
