अस्पृश्य समाजाच्या हाती राजकीय सूत्रे हवीतच २९१

It is also proposed to invite Rao Bahadur M. ७. Rajaha and Mr. G. A. Gavai to attend the session so that they may also have an opportunity of being heard before any resolution regarding the Minorities pact, is passed.

The second purpose for which this session is called, is equally important. There is no necessity to dilate upon it, for as you know what attempts are being made to misrepresent the public opinion of the depressed classes in matters political. tis not possible to put a stop to these machination unless a Central Organization is brought into being and made principal organ of the depressed classes.

The necessity of holding this session has been emphasized by the tactics adopted by the so-called All-India Depressed Classes Association. It was published in the newspapers that a meeting of the working committee of this Association was heid at Delhi on the 21st and 22nd of February last to consider the question of Joint or Seperate electorates and the number of seats proposed for the depressed classes under the new constitution and as no decision was arrived at, it was agreed by the Working Committee of this Association that the conference of the leading members of the depressed classes should be held at Nagpur to consider the question. it was hoped that a Leaders Confer- ence would be called before any definite step was taken, but for reasons known to themselves, the All-India Depressed Classes Association has abandoned the idea of calling such aconference. Under these circum- stances it has been mere necessity to mobilize the public opinion of the depressed classes so that not only such tactics may be defeated before they do the mischief they are intended to cause and secondly to allow public opinions of their own on these vital issues.

[therefore hope that in view of the importance of this session, you will make it convenient to attend the same.

Yours faithfully,

Hardas L. N. |

President, Reception Committee.
