This query is : Resolved
I bought flat in redeveloped building in 2013, which got OC, and i got possession in May 2014. Old society as it is will continue and their MC members. Society MC term was expired in Jan 2016 still continuing without election or new committee.
Now New flat purchasers approached registrar for membership & Election is going to happen in next month or soon. few of the old members are already filed complaint with registrar for redevelopment irregularities.Legal notices already been served and no revert given by the management committee. These old members may go for court case near future.
in this scenario what precaution the newly to be elected committee should take before taking charge of the society management. Kindly suggest.

What do you mean by redevelopment irregularities? If it has concern with the builder, then the new elected committee should not bother about the same. The committee shall be liable for the management of the society and it shall be a moral responsibility of the committee to support the old members as they are also a part of the society being the member.

Dear Sir thank you for your revert. committee members while registering the redevelopment agreement changed the additional area % for self benefit and committee members got more area than the offer letter of the builder. this came to know only when registered redevelopment agreement is given by builder recently. this was not shared with the old members earlier. even committee gave permission to builder to remove hydrolic parking and build illegal shop for which few members raised written complaint with committee. all these complaints are still unanswered by the committee. what is to be asked for if new management committee wants to take over the society.
hence my request your suggestion for precaustions.

New committee shall not be answerable to the wrongs done by earlier management committee members.Let the issue come before the to be elected new management. Don;t run is such speed. Get the new election and be elected in new management and let the issue come and then only raise the issue if really it comes before you.
