incapable or unfit to act, or cease to be a Parsi, or be convicted of an
offence under the Indian Penal Code or other law for the time being in force 12[involving
moral turpitude], or be adjudged insolvent, then and so often the State
Government may appoint any person being a Parsi to be a delegate in his stead;
and the name of the person so appointed shall be published in the Official
