Kindly look into the attchments.
2 (11) ‘Money-lender’ means a person who advances loans, and includes a mandy
merchant, a landlord lending grain as ‘Namu’ to his farm servant and a pawn-broker, but
does not include a bank, company or Co-operative Society and the expression
‘Money-lending’ shall be construed accordingly.
Where a money-lender who is not a resident of the Scheduled Areas
advances money through his Agent who resides in such areas such Agent shall be deemed
to be the money-lender in respect of the money so advanced.
At Collector to perform the functions of a registering authority
'Registering Authority' means the Project Director
District Rural Development Agency for the rural areas and
Project Director MEPMA for urban areas; or any other person
appointed by the District Collector to perform the functions of
a registering authority under this Ordinance for such District.
