    "content": "Thank you, hon. Chairlady. Some of us are here to represent such interests. While I agree, I know very well that, that kind of approach is responsible for the non-compliance with some of these provisions. Where the clause says “five per cent”, it says “at least“. I think there would be problem to say “at most---“. This is the totality. Today we have an opportunity to legislate, so that we correct that which we may think was done wrongly before. Therefore, I find it an omission. There are general qualifications that we can delineate for whatever public office we create by law. It is because of historical marginalisation of some sections of society that we delineate. That is why the Constitution provides for this kind of arrangement. Therefore, I would want to imagine that the Constitution, as read together with these other enabling legislations, has express provisions that guarantees that kind of representation."
