The Architects Act, 1972.
35.Effect of registration.-
(1) Any reference in any law for the time
being in force to an architect shall be deemed to be a reference to an
architect registered under this Act.
(2) After the expiry of two years from the
date appointed under sub-section (2) of section 24, a person who is registered
in the register shall get preference for appointment as an architect under the
Central or State Government or in any other local body or institution which is
supported or aided from the public or local funds or in any institution
recognized by the Central of State Government.
Comment : Like any other law, registration confers its
own advantages. This section gives preference to a registered architect in
matters of employment in government service and in service of local
authorities. A qualified architect would naturally have preference over an
unqualified person claiming to be an architect. AIR 1983
