Thanks for your kind words sir. 1)The auditor has refused to do the audits of accounts for the period of 1st April 2014 to 31st March 2015 due to want of signature of society secretary but it seems that the chairman and treasurer are least bothered and have decided that they shall conduct the AGM on sunday 2nd August 2015 without any audits of the accounts. They have even not distributed the notice of agenda regarding the AGM to be held.They have put a notice just signed by the chairman stating that the AGM shall be conducted on 2nd August 2015. 2)Upon inquiry from the accountant it was mentioned that he was ordered by them to do so. 3)Is this allowed in COOPERATIVE housing society interests .

This Appears to be a gross violation to the rules and bye laws of the society. This can be taken up with the Registrar of societies for proper legal action against the erring office bearers.
