Summary
This two-page organisational note, dated February 7, 1963, revises the timetable for enrolling members and electing Party committees. It records that an earlier schedule was postponed after requests from State Units, shifting the membership-enrolment deadline to November 30, 1962, and setting revised dates for elections at primary, district, State, and national levels. The note also records instructions concerning membership registers, enrolment, and the remittance of the Centre’s contribution.

- An October communication noted that the Central Office had not received reports from State Units on progress with the enrolment campaign.
- Following the declaration of the Emergency, elections were postponed and arrangements were made to reconstitute two State Committees.
- The note argues that indefinite ad hoc arrangements weaken the fostering and maintenance of inter-Party democracy.

- M. R. Masani signs the document as General Secretary.
