Status of section 185 after commencement of section 186

No, its not allowed. Section 186 can't make section 185 redundant.

Why not? Section 186 permits us to give loan to any person. Does anything in this Act restrain us by doing this?

Sec.185 deals with loans to specific related parties where conflict of interest exists.  Sec.186 is a general provision and covers loans to all parties whether related or not.  As a general rule of interpretation, specific & stricter provision always prevails over general provision.  Hence Sec.185 will prevail over Sec.186.

Yes, you are absolutly right Sir, this is the general practice which we adopt during interpritation of the Acts. But Section 185 starts with the words "Save as otherwise provided in this Act". That means if anything written in this act which contravene Section 185 that will be prevailled.... Please correct me if I am wrong.
