PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 549
of the substantial degree of unanimity they will all be accepted by the Hon. Dr. Ambedkar.
Dr. Ambedkar: Sir, as you were pleased to remark when the discussion of my motion started, that as there was hardly any principle running throughout this Bill and that each clause stood on its own merits, the proper thing would be to devote more attention to each clause as and when it comes before the House, and I do not think that I need take much time in discussing the points which have been raised in the course of this debate. I know that many Members, if they at all feel very serious about the comments that they have made, will undoubtedly take care either to express their point of view when the clause is put before the House and if they have any difficulty I certainly would deal with that matter in order to remove the difficulty, or they will take the course of moving proper amendments to get their point of view discussed in the House and by carrying conviction to the House.
That being so, it is not necessary for me to deal at great length with the various points that have arisen. I therefore, propose to be somewhat brief and to touch upon only those points which may not arise again in the course of the debate.
Mr. Deputy Speaker : Is the Hon. Minister likely to take some time ?
Dr. Ambedkar: Yes, Sir.
Mr. Deputy Speaker: Then the House stands adjourned till 8-30 A . M . on Monday.
The House then adjourned till Half Past Eight of the clock on Monday, the 14th May 1951.
