232 DR. BABASAHEB AMBEDKAR : WRITINGS AND SPEECHES
as to bargaining power. Will you do it ? If you do this, you will lose case with the employers. If you don’t, you cannot be the friend of labour. The Bill as it is, I am sure about it, should not be passed. It only handicaps labour. Labour may not now know what this Bill does. But when the Bill comes into operation and the labourer stands face to face with the Bill he will say that this Bill is bad, bloody and a brutal Bill. Sir I cannot be a party to it. (Applause).
