I have given notice of an amendment to an amendment of Mr. Kamath (875-A) which he did not move. My object there was to substitute for the words “The State shall foster the growth” the words, “the State shall promote the development“. The amended amendment would have read: “The State shall promote the development of economic and social democracy and to that end direct its policy towards securing.” I had proposed that this amendment should be incorporated in the first line of article 31 in accordance with the view announced by Dr. Ambedkar the other day that we want an economic democracy on the basis of ‘one man one value’. It is a great ideal and I congratulate him forgiving expression to that great ideal. With these words I commend this article to the House and I hope that the spirit of my criticism will be remembered by Dr. Ambedkar.
