The next change I desire to affect is to the effect that I want to delete the words “declared by federal law to be an institution of national importance” and instead of that, I want to substitute “institutions controlled and financed by the Federation”. I submit the requirement of a declaration by Federal Law is unnecessary. As the item is included in List I, the Federation will have automatically the power to make laws. So, the provision that a thing has to be declared by the Federal law seems to be unnecessary because the power to legislate on this item would be implied. Instead of that, the words “controlled and financed by the Federation” would be better because that would be more appropriate. This is the effect of the amendment. This is clearly of a drafting nature and it does not seriously alter the purpose and scope of the item. With regard to Mr. Santhanam’s amendment, I am in agreement with the spirit of the amendment.
