260 DR. BABASAHEB AMBEDKAR : WRITINGS AND SPEECHES
the House to decide. Whether the ministry should go out or should not go out is entirely a matter for their party to decide. Why does he want my sanction for his going out?
The Honourable Mr. B. G. Kher : I do not want it.
Dr. B. R. Ambedkar : Why does he need it ? I put to him another conundrum. Suppose I bring an amendment to say that the ministry shall not come back unless I invite them, will he accept it ? I am sure he would not tie himself down in that manner. If you want my sanction for going out, it will be some honour to me if you will also make your re-entry dependent on my sanction. But you will not do that, and I feel bound in conscience to oppose that amendment.
Sir, I thank you for the indulgence you have given me. (Applause).
The Honourable the Speaker : I would repeat my appeal to curtail the time. The honourable member Dr. Ambedkar has taken an hour and a half. I hope other honourable members will now curtail their time.
Dr. B. R. Ambedkar : I apologise, Sir.
