In Brief
The Managing Committee of Bheramari A.M. High Madrasah challenged orders directing appointment of an Administrator after the Committee failed to conduct elections for reconstitution within the prescribed period. The Court held that under Rule 8 of the Management of recognised Non-Government Madrasahs Rules, 2002, the Madrasah Board is entitled to appoint an Administrator when the Managing Committee neglects its statutory duty to initiate elections timely. The Court dismissed the special leave petitions, finding no error in the High Court's orders, and directed the Board to appoint an Administrator within four weeks and conduct fresh elections within eight weeks thereof.
