 Mrs Gandhi and members of the executive committee of the con- gress went aboard as soon as the Pilsna docked. Gandhi was all smiles when he walked down the gang plank. Minor clashes among the crowd had been smoothed out before his arrival.
 Trouble arose between members of the untouchable classes and Gandhis followers when the un- touchables, indignant at Gandhi's refusal to concede them special representation, organized q huge counter demonstration. They be- gan tearing down festons and streamers put up in Gandhfs honor.
 Several thousand followers of Dr BhimraO Ramji Ambedkar champion of the untouchables and founder of the Depressed Classes Institute. marched through the streets armed with sticks and knives. They attacked stray mem- bers of the congress volunteers.
 A captain of the volunteers anu one untouchable were seriously hurt in fighting. About 25 persons were injured before police dis armed the untoucha bles and pre- vented uglier developments.
 The rival factions shouted abuses at each other during Gandhi's re- ception but police kept them from fighting.
 Several colorful items in the original welcoming program, sucn as dropping flowers from airplanes. were omitted due to the troubles In the frontier province.
