Now you will find, Sir, that in all these sub-clauses (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) we have used the words “interest of general public”, `general public interest’ `public order’ and `property’ without defining them and I think it will take centuries for the Supreme Court to exactly say what really these words mean. By incorporating such words in the sub-clauses, wide powers have been given to the Central and the Provincial Legislatures to frame laws by which they can restrict the freedom which has been given to the people under sub clause (1) of this article. I do not like to enter into any criticism of this article, but the only thing I want to say is that the entire clause is very disappointing.
