My flat is in name of my mother who does not stay with us. now, one of the person said me that i can become office bearer by signing some form by which i will become associate member & can hold post in MC. Is this true? if true, what is the procedure of becoming the associate member? which form i have to sign? There is no way out by which a non bonafide member hold post in absence of bonafide members? then how come people manage in societies where majority of flats are on rents. Please suggest me some way out?

Any simple application shall work for this purpose and there need not insert the name of such associated member in the agreement for the flat. If management of the society accepts such application then the doors to become office bearers open for such member.

Right ! a simple application is sufficient.
No particular form is prescribed therefor in the rules.
Acceptance by society makes him eligible to contest indoor elections.

Every housing society has its byelaws. If the same permit Associate members you can be, on the application of the original member, enrolled as AM. In most of the societies voting rights and to contest election of MC are vested with the original member/ whose name appears first in the register. So check up byelaws of the society first.
