In proposed article 5-A the text of the article runs thus: “Notwithstanding anything contained in article 5 of this Constitution a person who has migrated to the territory of India” and the word “any person” would be better. The word “any person” has been used in a similar context in proposed article 5-B. “A person” is rather vague and “any person“, though meaning the same thing, is more precise and besides this amendment, if accepted, would make the drafting of this clause and clause 5-B the same. It is a drafting amendment and may be left over for consideration by the Drafting Committee.
