NK Kaul: the next point is that the administrative functions of the AMU are primarily carried out by four bodies - visitor, executive council, academic council and AMU court, now if the 5 key administrative functions as laid down by TMA Pai, the locus of administrative control as executed primarily lies with the executive council and academic council in conjunction with the visitor. The AMU Court is not the supreme body... the argument which is made that 32 Muslims are always meant to be out of the total AMU court, admittedly they are not in majority as the legislation doesn't define them to be in majority what your are seeking to say is that de facto, treat them as minority.

NK Kaul: It cannot be, the legisature if it wanted could have done so... now in fact if they turn out to be more cannot alter a legislative fact that they are not expected to be in legislative majority. The Highest which can be said is that AMU Court is one amongst many administrative bodies which are not minority led
