Quick Summary

For RWA elections, only one voting right and one contesting right is allocated per apartment, even with joint ownership. Typically, the primary member (first name on the title deed) is eligible to vote or contest. Alternatively, a joint owner can vote or contest if authorised by the primary member, but only one person per apartment can exercise these rights.

No. Only one member is eligible to vote or contest as a committee member.

The bylaws is very clear that the primary member can contest the election or the joint member being authorised by the primary member can cast the vote and contest the election, thus either of one only can do so.

It is only primary member (first name in title document) who is eligible to vote / contest.

If both the joint owners have right to vote then any member can have property jointly in the name f 50 persons and have majority in one door No.
