CJI: a thing that is worrying us is the 1981 amendment does not restore the position prior to 1951. In other words, the 81 amendment does a half hearted job ...they were placating that sentiment. But when it actually came to the brass stacks, they didn't go back to the positions prior to 1951. And what they did was it brought the Muslim voice into the AMU administration as we see it. But it still stops short, even the Parliament which had the power to do, it still stop short from taking us back to the 1920 Act. They made a few concessions but they never took it back to 1920, it could be reflected upon.
Dhavan: there are two elements, firstly the democratic elements, the students etc were throbbing that is consistent with the fact that some democratic elements had to be brought in. We get a voice mylords. suppose these were non Muslims, they might be subjected to challenge on the de facto aspect.
