    Dr. P.S. Deshmukh (C.P. & Berar: General): Mr. President, Sir, I move:

    "That in amendment No.2 of List (I (Seventh Week) in the proposed article 282, for the word 'may', where it occurs for the first time, the word 'shall' be substituted."

    Sir, looking to the whole structure of the provisions of this article, I think it is necessary that the provision in article 282 should be made obligatory and not left in doubt as it has been done here. It may probably be said that ' may has the force of 'shall. If that is our intention, why not use the word 'shall? I would, therefore, suggest that this amendment of mine may be accepted if it is found, as I hope it will be, that his change would be better suited to the whole position and carry out our intention better also.
