In a significant verdict aimed at “better and desirable” management of the renowned Pachaiyappa’s Trust, the Madras High Court on Wednesday modified its scheme of administration and ruled that henceforth the president of the trust board shall not be elected from among members and instead appointed by the High Court from time to time. Justice R. Suresh Kumar held that only a retired judge of the High Court would be eligible to be appointed as the president. Such a person could hold office for a period of two years and would be eligible for reappointment for one more term. The honorarium, perquisites and other facilities to be provided to the president shall be fixed by the High Court.
