238 DR. BABASAHEB AMBEDKAR : WRITINGS AND SPEECHES

Dr. Ambedkar : I would like to move an amendment to

10B. I beg to move :

In the proposed new clause 10B of the Bill, in the proposed section 27A of the representation of the People Act, 1950, for the words “Tripura and Manipur” substitute the words “Manipur and Tripura.”

The motion was adopted.

Mr. Speaker : The hon. Members will remember that out of the five amendments moved this morning by Dr. Ambedkar, three related to 27A which have been carried by this House.

I find that nobody wishes to move any of the amendments or make any speech further. So I shall come to all the clauses together, because I find that other amendments are only verbal.

Does any hon. Member wish to address himself to any particular clause now? No. Then I will put all the clauses— 27–D, E, F, G, H, I, ………….

Dr. Ambedkar : With regard to 27-I, Sir, with your permission I would like to move a small amendment to subclause (2), like the one I had moved earlier, namely, instead of Tripura and Manipur, it should be Manipur and Tripura.

“That the necessary corrections for the numbering and lettering of the clauses in the Bill and of the sections inserted by the Bill be carried out together with consequential corrections of cross references.”

The motion was adopted.

Clause 1 was added to the Bill.

The Title and the Enacting Formula were added to the Bill.
