6. Fully funded by Govt, but nominees from Govt bodies in Council/board only have 'observer status' - i.e in permanent minority
7. Outside purview of "single window" or govt nomination. Can conduct their own screening tests (eg Stephens has entrance test above marks)

These are not just some Desi Jugaads - they *fundamentally* alter the shape of the future. No country in the world has anything of this. You can see in India - how no thintanki or "eminent jurist" will even broach this topic. #core1 is at that level.
8. Important to mention the OBC quota issue. Only aided minority are exempt from this. Since 2008 exemption from this is sought after. My guess: Most minorities may consider this particular group as suspect and political category.
