Section 10. Powers of the State Government to take over management

(1) Notwithstanding anything contained in any law for the time being in force, whenever it appears to the State Government that the managing (committee of any recognised institution has neglected to perform any of the duties assigned to it by or under this Act or the rules made thereunder or has failed to manage the institution properly and that is has become necessary in the public interest to take over the management of such institution, it may, after giving to such managing committee a reasonable opportunity of showing cause against the proposed action, take over such management and appoint an administrator to exercise control over the assets of the institution and to run the institution for such period as the State Government may from time to time fix. (2) Where, before the expiry of the period fixed under sub-section (1), the State Government is of opinion that it is not necessary to continue the management of the institution by an administrator, such management shall be restored to the managing committee.
