658 DR. BABASAHEB AMBEDKAR : WRITINGS AND SPEECHES
Clause 136 as amended was added to the Bill.
Dr. Ambedkar: There are no amendments to clauses Nos.
137 to 143.
Pandit Thakur Das Bhargava (Punjab) : With regard to clause 139, unless clauses 122 to 124 are disposed of, it will be difficult to dispose it of. You have been pleased to hold over clauses 122 to 124 and clause 139 has relation to those clauses.
Mr. Speaker: The hon. Member wants clause 139 to be held over?
Pandit Thakur Das Bhargava : Yes, Sir.
Mr. Speaker : I will put the motion in a different way then.
Shri J. R. Kapoor (Uttar Pradesh) : I suppose it will be open to move for an addition of a new clause i.e. clause 132A later on, because that will also depend upon some previous clauses. I would like to add a new clause.
Mr. Speaker: In case it does not contravene the previous decision of the House, the hon. Member is entitled to move it. I will put the motion in a different form now.
The motion was adopted.
Clauses 137 and 138 were added to the Bill.
Clauses 140 to 143 were added to the Bill.
Clause 144. —( Disqualification for being an election agent )
Dr. Ambedkar: I beg to move:
In clause 144, omit the words “or a polling agent”.
Shri Iyyunni (Travancore-Cochin) : I have also an amendment.
Mr. Speaker: Has he anything to say on this amendment ? We will come to his amendment later.
Dr. Ambedkar : It is his amendment which I am moving.
Shri Iyyunni : My amendment is that in the marginal heading to clause 144, the words “or polling agent” be omitted and the clause 144 also the words “polling agent” be omitted.
