Summary
Central Government prescribes the form and manner for transmitting letters of request, summons, or warrants between India and contracting States under this Chapter. Any such document received from, or to be sent to, a contracting State must be forwarded to that State or to the concerned court in India in the form and manner notified by the Central Government. It applies whenever a letter of request, summons or warrant is involved.
