Clause (32) empowers the Board of Trustees to frame rules and regulations for the administration and management of the trust and trust properties and also to amend such rules and regulations provided that such rules and regulations shall not be inconsistent with any of the provisions of the Scheme or the provisions of the Public Trust Act, 1950 or the rules framed thereunder.
Clause (33) provides for amendment of the scheme. The Board of Trustees or any two or more persons interested in the trust have right to apply to the Charity Commissioner for amending the Scheme. The Charity Commissioner may also suo motu amend the Scheme after giving notice to the Board of Trustees.
20. As far as the appointment of trustees by the Competent Authority from amongst non-murids is concerned, the Competent Authority shall consider that the appointees must be persons of good repute, educated and believers in Sir Pir Mohammed Saheb and the appointees should not belong to a political party. The Competent Authority shall also consider that out of the two non-murid trustees one person should be a person preferably residing in the vicinity of the Dargah/Madressa/Rooms so that non-murids may be in a position to approach such a nominated trustee with ease, and another non-murid trustee should be a woman having experience in the field of education so that the cause of women's education gets the impetus it deserves. This Court has partly taken that care in the matter of appointment of Murid trustees by providing for at least two women murid trustees. The justification for these provisions is not far to seek-women constitute at least fifty per cent of the beneficiaries and most of them have been lagging behind for lack of secular education. The case for increasing their participation in the management of the Trust can be considered in future.
Provided that it will be open to the Competent Authority to appoint a non-murid trustee for a term shorter than six years.
(b) On retirement by rotation the trustees shall be eligible for reappointment.
(c) Every three years in the month of December, the continuing Murid trustees shall, by a two-third majority of the total number of the continuing Murid trustees ( not merely of the trustees present at the meeting and voting), appoint one half number of trustees in accordance with the other clauses of this Scheme to fill in the vacancies which are to arise on the 31st December of that year.
Provided further that the Competent Authority may, while appointing two non-murids as trustees for the first time, appoint one of them for the full term of six years and the other for a term of three years.
Clause 11 of the Scheme shall be substituted by the following clause:-
11. Appointment of non-murid Trustees.
(a) The Competent Authority shall appoint two trustees of Sir Pir Mohammed Saheb Trust from Muslims who are not Murids. The persons to be appointed shall be Muslims of good repute and educated (at least S.S.C. pass and preferably graduates) and shall have faith in Hazarat Pir Mohammed Saheb and shall be not less than 25 years of age and shall not be members of any political party;
