A. On the 26th of January 1950, we are going to enter into a life of contradictions. In politics, We will
have inequality. In politics we will be recognising the principle of one man, one vote and one vote
one value. In our social and economic structure, continue to deny the principle of one man one
value. How long shall continue to live this life of contradictions ? How long shall we deny equality
in our social and economic life ? If we continue to deny it for long we will do so only by putting our
political democracy in perio. We must remove this contradiction at the earliest possible movement

this assembly has so laboriously built up.
