Summary: It may be stated that the State or any instrumentality of the State cannot deprive the minority character of the institution, founded by a minority community. The Constitution provides a special right to minorities to establish educational institutions of their choice which has a distinct identity. The right to administer with continuance of such identity cannot be denied by coercive action. Any such coercive action would be void being contrary to the Constitutional guarantee. The right to administer is the right to conduct and manage the affairs of the institution. Reasonable regulations, however, are permissible but regulations should be of regulatory nature and not of abridgement of the right guaranteed by the Constitution. However, one may think whether the Constitutional protection made contri- bution for the upliftment of minorities. For example, one of the important minority groups, namely, Muslim, is still suffering with the educational backwardness, illiteracy and poverty. On the other hand, another minority group, Christian, is maintaining high literacy rate as was prior to the Constitutional protection. Some- times, the beneficiaries are the members of the other communities in the name of a particular minority institution specially for technical and professional education,
