44. Treatment of Indians in the Union of South Africa

The General Assembly,

Having taken note of the application made by the Government of India regarding the treatment of Indians in the Union of South Africa, and having considered the matter:

1. States that, because of that treatment, friendly relations between the two Member States have been impaired and, unless a satisfactory settlement is reached, these relations are likely to be further impaired;
2. Is of the opinion that the treatment of Indians in the Union should be in conformity with the international obligations under the agreements concluded between the two Governments and the relevant provisions of the Charter;
3. Therefore requests the two Governments to report at the next session of the General Assembly the measures adopted to this effect.

Fifty-second plenary meeting, 8 December 1946.
