Answer» Appointing the successor: - Gandhiji’s idea of trusteeship aimed at appointing a successor to the wealth of the trust.
- According to him, the legal owners of wealth should become the official trustees. The trust should not be entrusted to the society or the state.
- The actual owner should act as a representative of the society. This way the society will own the resources indirectly.
- The current trustee can name the successor who would be the trustee after her/his death. The new trustee would also be a representative of the assets of the trust and not the owner of the assets. The state must monitor the functioning of the trust.
- The state or society cannot seize the property of the trust. The successor should be appointed through a legal procedure.
