Summary

This September 1963 issue of the Swatantra Newsletter, issued by the Central Office of the Swatantra Party, is centered on opposition to the proposed Seventeenth Amendment to the Constitution. Its opening coverage presents the amendment as a threat to property rights, judicial review, compensation for land acquisition, and constitutional liberty, and reports protests, conferences, deputations, public meetings, petitions, and postcard campaigns across Andhra, Punjab, Mysore, Madras, Delhi, Bombay, Gujarat, Rajasthan, and other regions. Annexure A reproduces speeches from the Southern States’ Convention, where M. K. Nambyar, V. P. Menon, K. R. Karanth, N. G. Ranga, Rajaji, and others argue that the measure would enable unchecked state acquisition and collectivist or communist land policy.
