ABSTRACT

Benificial legislation is a statute which implies to present an advantage on people or a class of persons. The nature of such benefit is to alleviate said persons of grave commitments under contracts went into by them. Beneficial construction is an interpretation to secure solution for the victim who is unfairly precluded from claiming help. The interpretation of a statue should be done in such a way that mischief is suppressed and remedy is advanced. The construction of a statute must not so strain the words as to include cases plainly omitted from the natural meaning of the language, even where the usual meaning of the words fall short of the object of legislature, a more extended meaning may be attributed to them, if they are fairly susceptible to it. It is the duty of the court to interpret a provision, especially a beneficial provision in its widest meaning rather than to give it a restrictive meaning or else it would defeat the very object of the legislation. Beneficial construction means an interpretation to promote public good and prevent misuse of power. An interpretation which advances equity and balance should to be favored. Although hardship is not a ground for striking down legislation, but wherever possible statue should be interpreted to avoid possible hardship.
