According to Executive Council Members Dr. Mujahid Beg and Dr. Mohd Asif, the EC meeting convened on May 3, 2009 has its historic importance because the allegations and counter-allegations were directed by the Hon'ble President of India in the capacity of Visitor of AMU to place it in the Executive Council meeting on May 3, 2009, and thereafter submit the approved report latest by May 5, 2009 to the Visitor. Both EC members namely Dr. Mujahid Beg and Dr. Mohd Asif apprised that a delegation of sixteen members of statutory august bodies of Executive Council, AMU Court and Academic Council as well as AMU Teacher's Association had given a memorandum to Shri Arjun Singh, Hon'ble Union Minister of HRD demanding a CBI inquiry for arson, burning of university properties, murders, stabbing, etc since last twenty years. Dr. Beg and Dr. Asif said that those who were either expelled or suspended from the university in their yesteryears in AMU are now unfortunately members of the Executive Council, and are presently indulging in the same anti-university activities for which they were suspended or expelled in their yesteryears at AMU. Apart from the above, allegations leveled (a) by few disgruntled EC members having vested interest (b) allegations by old boys association and (c) allegations by non-teaching representatives were also deliberated in the EC meeting. The allegations leveled by anti-VC members were refuted successfully by displaying documented proofs, whereas the counter-allegations against some disgruntled EC members having vested interest were proven to be correct as evidenced by documented proofs. Thus, the whole agenda was approved by the Executive Council by majority i. e. 13 members in favor, 07 members dissenting and 01 member abstaining from voting.

Dr. Mujahid Beg further stated that he has come with a sole mission of weeding out corrupt and criminals from AMU who were flourishing since last twenty years. He said even if his near and dear ones are found guilty, he will ensure appropriate action against them. Dr. Beg also said that in order to weed out corruption, he would not hesitate in seeking the help of Hon'ble President of India as well as Hon'ble Prime Minister of India. Dr. Beg further said one nominated EC member (name removed by moderator) who is against the present VC because of vested interest always levels false and frivolous allegations against the administration but always ignores his illegal actions. Few lines were deleted by moderator which have a reference to an EC member.
