N.D. Gupta posed this question that for what values of $c$ and $d$ it is true that $\mathcal{N}_c^{(d)}$ is locally nilpotent? We prove that if $c\leq 2^d+2^{d-1}-3$ then the variety $\mathcal{N}_c^{(d)}$ is locally nilpotent and we reduce the question of Gupta about the periodic groups in $\mathcal{N}_c^{(d)}$ to the prime power finite exponent groups in this variety.4 pages, to appear in Bull.
