Section 34(1) in The North Cachar Hills Autonomous Districts (Administration of Justice) Rules, 1955
(1)When any person is convicted of an offence which the District Council Court is competent to try under these rules, and no previous conviction is proved against the offender, if it appears to that Court, regard being had to the age, character or antecedents of the offender, and to the circumstances, in which the offence was committed, that it is expedient that the offender should be released on probation of good conduct, the Court may instead of sentencing him at once to any punishment, direct that he be released on his entering into a bond with or without sureties to appear and receive sentence when called upon during such period not exceeding three years as the Court may direct and in the meantime to keep the peace and be of good behaviour:Provided that, where any first offender is convicted by a Subordinate District Council Court and the Court is of opinion that the powers conferred by this rule should be exercised, it shall record its opinion to that effect, and submit the proceedings to the District Council Court forwarding the accused to or taking bail for his appearance before such Court which shall dispose of the case in the manner provided by Rule 35.
