Two witness for nomination of flat in coop housing society

No, it is incorrect.

Wife and husband are two different persons and they can be witness to a nomination, there is no legal infirmity..

Thank you sir for your prompt reply.

That is stupid ,,, witness can be anyone with sound mind be that husband -wife or  father -son 

In the context of housing society nomination forms, it's crucial to understand the legal nuances. The nomination forms for housing societies are governed by the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960.

While the Act doesn't explicitly prohibit husband and wife as witnesses, certain societies might have their own bylaws or rules in place. However, the objection raised by the secretary of your housing society might not have a solid legal basis.

The Indian Evidence Act, 1872, doesn't disallow spouses from being witnesses for each other in general situations. Similarly, there isn't a specific prohibition in the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act barring spouses from being witnesses on nomination forms.

It might be helpful to refer to specific bylaws or rules of your housing society for clarity as individual societies can enforce their own rules within certain reasonable bounds. Therefore, it's advisable to explore the situation within the context of your society's regulations.

Thank you very much  for your efforts in answering so clearly.
