(2) Upon the receipt of such report, if the 1[Commissioner], after making such inquiry 2[as he deems] necessary, is satisfied that an arrangement for the administration of the math and its endowments or of the specific endowment, as the case may be, is necessary, 3[he shall] make such arrangements 4[as he thinks fit] until the disability of the trustee ceases or another trustee succeeds to the office, as the case may be. (3) In making any such arrangement, 1[the Commissioner] shall have due regard to the calims of the disciples of the math, if any. ______________________________________________________________________________
