A.M.A, AZEEZ – SENATE SPEECHES

 

This book was published by the Dr. A.M.A. Azeez foundation in 2008, comprising 520 pages including 80 photographs and 7 cartoons.
 
The book contains all of Dr. Azeez’s scholarly speeches in the Senate from June 1952 to March 1963. His speech on the Address of Thanks to the Throne Speech on 8th May, 1956 spells out the Status of the Tamil Language. His speech on 3rd July, 1956 on the Official Language Bill is one of his longest and most brilliant. He submits it to a comprehensive and detailed analysis and shows the inexcusable flaws in the Bill, and makes a passionate last minute plea for it to be amended to make it acceptable to the minorities.
