BILL TWICE REJECTED
Indian Assembly Voting
VICEROY’S APPEAL IGNORED
.Received 17, 9.55 a.m.) DELHI, Sept. 16.
Reintroducing the Criminal Law Amendment Bill, which the Assembly on Thursday rejected by 71 votes to 61, Viscount Willingdon in a two-hours speech appealed for co-operation under the constitution, departure from which never led anywhere. The shadow of a crimiual strike must be dispelled if India were to be successfully developed. The Bill was again rejected by 69 votes to 57. Members of the Congress did not attend, as a protest against the reintroduction of the measure.
It is expected that Viscount Willingdon will now use his powers to certify the Bill.
