SCHEDULED CASTES...............NEGLECTED 375
We have been trying our utmost to help in the evacuation of the Scheduled Castes from Pakistan, notably Sind, where they have been prevented from coming away. Our High Commissioner there is in continuous contact with this problem.
As regards the other problems raised by you they have to be dealt with by the East Punjab Government. We shall certainly advise them in the matter and see to it that every help is given to the Scheduled Caste evacuees.
We have had some difficulty in dealing with the East Punjab Government in regard to many matters chiefly because the multitude of the problem it faces. I shall gladly give my personal attention to this subject and am requesting the Minister without Portfolio to look into this matter specially.
Yours Sincerly,
(Sd/—) Jawaharlal Nehru.
The Honourable Dr. B. R. Ambedkar.” [1]
