I had originally thought of suggesting that we might, in order to make the meaning of this particular article clear, split it up into two and call it 315 (1) with the following words : “The Indian Independence Act, 1947, in so far as its provisions are repugnant to this Constitution”, Then put the figure (2) and put the following words after it. “The Government of India Act, 1935 including the India (Central Government and Legislature) Act, 1946, and all other enactments amending or supplementing the Government of India Act”, And thereafter, put these words below, which shall apply to both (1) and (2) : shall cease to have effect”. In view of the position taken up by my honourable Friend Mr. Alladi Krishnaswami Ayyar, I would suggest with your permission that the House do pass this article in this form and we will have the position re-examined. “.
