Suva. May 17
MR. AMI CHANDRA, is a nominated Indian member of the Legislative of Fiji. He came to Fiji in 1927, started a school in Suva, returned to India in 1935 and stayed two years.
He went to Auckland in 1946 to com plete his Diploma in Education.
Mr Chandra has now gone back to Auckland to complete his Master’s degree, and ip an interview with the Auckland Star he is reported to have said that Indians, Fijians and Europeans have dropped their communal differences in the effort to secure a greater measure of self-government for Fiji.”
Obviously a wishful thinker, Mr.
Chandra did not mention who empowered him to speak for the Fijian and Euro pean communities or, as a nominated member, for the Indians.
