A number of amendments have been tabled. And I imagine that many of those amendments will be moved and very many constructive and helpful suggestions will be made. The house is aware that under the constitution there is a special officer appointed by the president. I should like, at the very beginning to pay a tribute to his hard work and the devotion with which he was worked will be shown by the very exhaustive report that he has submitted to this house. I would beg hon. Members to remember that when we appoint a district magistrate, for instance, he is not merely a district magistrate for looking after the Schedule Castes living in that district whether they are one lakh or two lakhs or twenty lakhs, but he is the district magistrate for the entire district. Sir, I would like to conclude my speech my talking about two more important issues. I would like to say that the allocation for Defence Budget has been increased. Shri Pranab Mukherjee was telling that in the fight against terrorism, we need more allocation. I agree that we do not need more allocation but the Government of India miserably failed to control terrorism which is coming from outside and within the country. Here I would liek to say that the Government of India should take note of the comments made by the Supreme Court on Salva Judum. The strategic partnership with the United States of America has started even before signing the Indo-US nuclear deal. They decide as to who should be the Ministers in the Indian Cabinet. You can claim that our country is an independent country. Shir Mani Shankar Aiyar's head has rolled from the post of Petroleum Minister because the United States of America did not like the method of his understanding and his attempt for an MoU with the Iranian petroleum companies for the gas pipeline. This is what we accused and we still accuse.
