MAHARASHTRA-Caste and Communism

December 16, 1967 position is that the State has no legislature. Which means that everything requiring legislative sanction will have to be regularised by an ordinance from the Governor. This is the harvest of Dharma Vira's insistence on caLling an early session of the Assembly. If on November 22 the Governor had dismissed the Ajoy Mukherjee Government and invoked President's Rule and promised an early mid-term election, all today would have been thinking of the poll instead of the next bus to burn, the next intrigue for defectors and re-defectors. The whole atmosphere has been rendered vicious by shortsightedness in Calcutta and Delhi.
