High court appointed receiver can participate in state elections

Respected Sir's,

Need advice & what actions can be taken with reference to the below scenario:

An Institution, due to some disputes between the trustees. A Receiver was appointed by the H'ble High Court of Madras. The Principal of the above Institution is appointed as the Receiver & the appointed of Receiver & acceptance has been signed between Jurisdiction Sub-Court Judge & Receiver.

During appointment as Receiver, he is working in the Institution as Principal. After few years in 2011, he had contested in State elections for Municipal Councilor post & had won the elections. Now he is the Elected member for Municipality as a Councilor.

Questions:

1. Does The Receiver who has been appointed by the Court is considered as Government Employee?

2. In a Judgement given by H'ble Supreme Court of India (Criminal Appeal No: 1881 of 2013 - Page 14 & 15) has stated that "Public Servant means - any person authorised by a court of justice to perform any duty, in connection with the administration of justice, including a liquidator, receiver or commissioner appointed by such court) with reference to the above statement, the Receiver is a Public Servant, which means a Government employee? Correct me if, I'm wrong... Please...

3. If he is considered as Public Servant (Government Employee), the Election Commission doesn't allow Government Employee to participate in elections. Based on this situation, what actions (criminal / civil - according to which section of law), to cancel his Receiver post & Municipal Councilor post?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Prem

Educational trust (amended deed)

Dear Sir / Madam,

We had registered a Trust Deed on 2000 with 20 members, due to some reasons 15 trustees (some of the trustees are died & they had added their legal heirs) joined together & made a new amended trust deed, in the local registration office.

The following are the findings, which we later found in the registered amended trust deed:

1. One of the Trustee was died on 2007, but in the new amended deed, it was written as he is still alive & due to his illness, his legal heir has become the member of the Trust (The died person, haven't written any will / document for appointing his son as a trustee)

2. Is this a criminal / civil offence, for stating a false statement in the recently registered trust deed? Please let me know the civil sections & what kind of punishment would be given under the law?

3. We are the remaining 5 Trustees, shall we file criminal / civil case against 15 trustees who had signed the amended deed?

4. Under section of law, they can be charged & what will be the punishments for doing these unlawful act?

5. Does the amended deed document will be valid, for taking possession of the trust?

6. What will be the minimum & maximum punishments, for these wrong doings?

Thanks in advance.
