[Letter to N Dandeker]

Summary

This typed letter, dated July 24, 1968, is addressed to Shri N. Dandeker and reports a conversation with Shri Yashpal Singh at the signatory’s residence the previous night.

The letter presents these terms in connection with a possible seat on the second bench and a Party-in-charge role involving three divisions and a vehicle.

The letter recommends that Singh’s admission be considered favourably, citing his influence in Uttar Pradesh and in a state by-election. The document is a narrowly focused piece of internal party correspondence; no further context about the Party’s identity or the outcome of the proposal appears on the page.
