Report No. 55
25. Shri Mathur's objection to the amendment.-
Opposing the amendment as to interest on costs, one Member1 of the Lok Sabha said:-
"What is your change in social ideas which sends you in all sympathy with that man? I would like to know what is the change in social ideas that makes you go in sympathy with a person who, though the amount is due from him, does not pay up the amount but forces the man to go to a court of law, who forces that man to take certain loans and engage a counsel and pay the court fees. And you do not want any interest to be paid on that account. What is this change in social law which asks you to do that? I should certainly like to know as to why you do that?"
