"content": "Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, a motorcycle is defined by two attributes. It has an engine and two wheels. The minute you come up with a motorcycle Bill like what Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale has come up with, then you alter the definition of the motorcycle and remove the engine from it; leaving it only two wheels, then that is no longer a motorcycle. That is the mischief that Sen. Thang’wa is introducing here. We are dealing with the Affordable Housing Bill and we are changing the definition of affordable housing at this point, after subjecting it to public participation. That is unconstitutional because one cannot alter materially the substance of a Bill at this point, in time. Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, I wish that Sen. Thang’wa can gracefully withdraw that amendment. This is because we cannot be deleting the plinth and only maintaining the income status."
