Section 51(1) in The Calcutta University Act, 1979.
(1)The Syndicate may of its own motion, and shall, when required by the Senate, make a draft of any Statute and submit the same to the Senate. The draft so submitted shall be considered by the Senate at a meeting or meetings to be held within a period of six weeks from the date of such submission (hereinafter referred to as the said period), and the draft so submitted shall, unless rejected or amended by the Senate before the expiry of the said period by a majority of the total number of its members existing at the time, be deemed to have been passed by the Senate. If the Senate so rejects or amends the draft of any Statute, it shall be sent back to the Syndicate with the views of the Senate for reconsideration. Thereupon, the Syndicate shall reconsider the draft and resubmit it to the Senate with such changes as it may deem necessary. On such resubmission of the draft, it shall again be considered by the Senate at a meeting or meetings to be held within a period of six weeks from the date of such submission (hereinafter referred to as the later period) and the draft so resubmitted shall, unless rejected by the Senate before the expiry of the latter period by a majority of the total number of its members existing at the time, be deemed to have been passed by the Senate without any amendment, or be passed by the Senate with such amendments as it may deem fit to make therein within the latter period and by the same majority as aforesaid.
