Sir, the reasons for the inclusion of the words, whose omission has been suggested, have been recognised by the Hon’ble the Mover himself, and have been elaborated by Mr. Ananthasayanam Ayyangar. I have nothing to add to those reasons. I think that on the whole it is better that we should not incur the risk of courts possibly taking different views upon a question of that sort. As we are all agreed that the substance of what those words indicate must be included in the item of ‘Defence’, it is much better that we do include those words in this item. If the Hon’ble the Mover has no objection, I would suggest his withdrawing his amendment.
