FULL TRANSCRIPT
Sir, in 1959, a general notification was issued by an Honourable Minister when Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru was the Prime Minister. Categories of cases were categorically identified for which general consent was to be sought from States and West Bengal, with Dr Bidhan Chandra Roy as the chief minister, gave consent to the notification. You can check it up. I have read it, I have done my research on it. In 1961, 59 notifications were presented for consent from State governments. But, incidentally, after 1961, no consent has been given by the state of West Bengal. You can check it up.
