PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 605
Dr. Ambedkar: I agree. Let us not be over-precise.
Mr. Speaker: So I put the amendment as it is.
The motion was adopted.
Pandit Thakur Das Bhargava: There is one amendment in the name of Mr. Jaspat Roy Kapoor—No. 102 in Supplementary List No. 1.
Mr. Speaker: But is he here ?
Pandit Thakur Das Bhargava: No. But if you permit me I would like to move it.
Mr. Speaker: Is it an agreed amendment?
Dr. Ambedkar: Yes. It is to drop those words “or to be renominated as a candidate for the same election in the same constituency”.
Mr. Speaker: I will allow it.
Further Amendment made:
In sub-clause (2) of clause 35, omit all the words occurring after the words “to cancel the notice” to the end.
—[ Pandit Thakur Das Bhargava ]
Mr. Speaker: The question is :
“That clause 35, as amended stand part of the Bill.”
The motion was adopted.
Clause 35, as amended, was added to the Bill.
Clause 36 was added to the Bill.
Clause 37. —( Nomination at other elections )
Dr. Ambedkar: I have four amendments—Nos. 26, 27,
30 and 31 in Supplementary List No. 3.
The Minister of State for Transport and Railways (Shri Santhanam): In the last portion of clause 37(1) the wording is “qualified to be chosen to fill that seat under the Constitution and this Act”. I would like to suggest that the words “under the constitution” may be omitted, they seem to be wholly unnecessary because no parliamentary enactment can override the provisions of the Constitution.
