I would like to refer to another point, and that is with regard to Article 149. Curiously enough, I find an amendment has been suggested which if given effect to will lay down a very dangerous principle, the principle of converting a general population into an absolute minority. I refer to the amendment which had been suggested by the Drafting Committee and which says: “That in clause (3) of article 149, after the words’ save in the case of the autonomous districts of Assam’ the words ‘and in case of constituencies having seats reserved for the purposes of article 294 of this Constituted’ be substituted.”
