INDIA'S CONSTITUTION
SHOULD BE LEFT TO BRITAIN INDIAN LABOUR SECRETARY'S VIEW (Rec. 10.20 a.m.) LONDON, Dec. 21. The British Labour Government should decide India's constitutional issues and not leave the decision to a minority of the enfranchised few, said Mr V. B*. Karnik, secretary of the Indian Federation of Labour at a Press conference in London. Mr Karnik argued that disagreement between Congress and the Muslin League was likely to continue and even to become more embittered after the elections. India needed a democratic Constitution evolved by consultation with all Indians. There was a danger of the upper classes assuming narrow nationalistic control over India unless Britain worked for a democratic Socialist solution of the problem.
