The Council published a monograph (ICSSR Occasional Monogrophs No. 9) in 1973 on this subject. This was pre pared by Dr. G.S. Sharma, then Dean of the Law School, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur. This monograph dealt with the establishment and administration of educational institutions run by minorities and the Case Law laid down by Courts in India with regard to educational and cultural rights of minori ties. This monograph was very well received by scholars and policy-makers and soon went out of print.
Since 1973, there have been several judicial pronounce ments by the Supreme Court and High Courts on the subject further elaborating the rights of the minorities.
The Ministry of Education, Government of India, specifically approached the Council with a suggestion for updating this monograph. The Council readily agreed to the suggestion and entrusted the work of updating to Professor D.K. Singh, Faculty of Law, University of Delhi.
