I believe that yesterday I was not properly understood when I said passengers and goods traffic on the roads, especially those between more than one. State, should be within the cognizance and jurisdiction of the Union. I have no intention of taking away the right of the States so far as their jurisdiction is confined to the territories under those States, but what will happen so far as traffic from one State to another is concerned and wherever more than one State comes into play? I have not been able to see any objection, if “sea and air” are to be included, why inasmuch as we are going to have national highways the word “land” also should not be included. I, therefore, move that the words “land, sea” may be added, unless Dr. Ambedkar has any special reason or there is any other ground on which this would be not proper.
