That is the effect, Sir. I want that only members of the Lower House should be there which means that those who are elected by adult suffrage to the Lower House should alone be able to be Ministers. Unless a member can get the confidence of the electorate in an election to the Lower house by adult franchise, he should not be made a Minister. That is the essence of democracy, which means the Government of the people by the people. So I submit, Sir, that in this Article, in place of the words “Legislature of the State”, the words “Legislative Assembly of the State” should be substituted I hope the Drafting Committee will accept this suggestion. (Amendments No. 2188 to 2191 were not moved.)
