PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 191
some education in Members who come to represent their various constituencies in this House. But I just cannot see how you can give legal effect to it. Therefore, my suggestion is that this is a matter which had better be left to the people themselves, or to the political parties who will run the Government. I have no doubt about it that if the political parties, for their own particular purposes, do not attend to this matter, people themselves in course of time will attend to it. People are not going to allow persons who cannot discharge their functions properly in this House to be continued and returned for ever.

If I had found that any concrete suggestion had emerged from the debate which it was possible to give effect to in terms of law, I certainly would not have hesitated to accept that recommendation. My friend Prof. K T. Shah said that he did not despair at this stage of finding a formula which he might give legal effect to. I was waiting to hear from him further some concrete suggestion and the method by which he would give
