In the typical governance structure of Indian universities, the Academic Council is recognised as the principal academic body. It approves syllabi, examination schemes and other academic regulations, so the missing word in the stem must be “Academic.”
Option A:
Option A is correct because “Academic Council” is the standard statutory name used in university Acts and ordinances for the body that takes decisions on teaching and examination matters.
Option B:
Option B is incorrect since a Finance Council or committee focuses on budgeting and resource allocation rather than academic policy.
Option C:
Option C is wrong because a Sports Council deals with games and physical education activities, not with syllabi or exam regulations for all programmes.
Option D:
Option D is incorrect as a Works Council or works committee would look after construction or maintenance issues and is unrelated to the academic functions mentioned in the stem.
