* **Program Suspension/Phase-Out:** The procedure for temporarily suspending or phasing out a program will be as per the Regulations.
* **Regulations and Authority:** Regulations cannot contravene decisions of the ACBoM regarding program duration, number of studentships, admission procedures, or the percentage of students from various categories. The AC must approve any changes to the regulations.
* **Interpretation and Disputes:** In cases of ambiguity or differing interpretations, the Vice-Chancellor can make a decision after consulting a committee of Deans. The Vice-Chancellor's decision is final.
* **Amendments:** The Vice-Chancellor can approve amendments, modifications, insertions, or deletions to ordinances on behalf of the BoM if deemed necessary for the smooth running of a program, but these changes must be reported to the BoM for ratification.
