160 DR. BABASAHEB AMBEDKAR : WRITINGS AND SPEECHES

The Honourable the Speaker: “And for other purposes”.

Dr. B. R. Ambedkar: “Such as dealing with immigrants”.

The Honourable the Speaker: After all, lawyers know as to how a preamble is construed and what importance is attached to it so far as the construction of the sections is concerned. If I may be permitted to say so, I do not think this point is really such as to be such a debatable point as that.

Mr. Jamnadas M. Mehta: “Other” must be there, because those which are mentioned previously are also purposes.

The Honourable the Speaker: “And for other purposes hereinafter appearing”.

Mr. Jamnadas M. Mehta: That will do.

The Honourable Mr. K. M. Munshi: I accept the amendment.

The Honourable the Speaker: So then, I take it that this will be the wording. (Interruption). The phraseology is taken from the sections themselves.

Dr. B. R. Ambedkar: I accept it.
