732 DR. BABASAHEB AMBEDKAR : WRITINGS AND SPEECHES
Dr. Ambedkar: I do not think my hon. friend need worry about the President. We make use of him for a variety of things and we have Article 392 whereby he can issue an order and we do not propose to take advantage of that in spite of the transitory situation.
Mr. Deputy Speaker: We are starting another discussion after the discussion is over. I will put the motion to the House. There are other clauses and hon. Members have got ample opportunity.
The question is :
“That the Bill to declare certain offices of profit not to disqualify their holders for being Members of Parliament, be taken into consideration.”
The motion was adopted.
Clause 2.—( Prevention of disqualification etc .)
Amendment made :
In page 1, (i) in line 23, omit “and”; and
(ii) after line 2, add:
“( f ) the office of members of the Enquiry Commission appointed by the Government of Assam or by the Government of West Bengal in pursuance of the Agreement made between India and Pakistan on the 8th April 1950, for any period not extending beyond the 31st day of December, 1950 ; and
