Quick Summary

This discussion explores the authority of a Managing Committee over an unregistered Festival Committee that organises yearly celebrations. While the Festival Committee has operated independently for years, the newly formed Managing Committee is causing issues. Experts suggest that the Festival Committee, not being an official society branch, requires formal permission. The Managing Committee also needs to follow proper procedures, potentially involving a resolution passed by members, to grant or deny permission. Raising the issue at the Annual General Body meeting is advised if there's majority support.

All the members who are interested in celebrating festivals make a decision in the Annual General Body meeting of the society with the majority. Then the committee will not object to it. It is only an amicably settled issue but not a legal one.

The festival committee is not an official committee or a branch committee of the society.
It is just a group of members residing within the apartment complex and they have formed a committee of friends on their own without taking permission from the association.
They cannot take advantage of the society's silence over this in the past and canot claim any rights to perform puja or any festival celebrations without the society's permission.
The MC also cannot take a decision to permit them to celebrate festivals on their own, they may have to pass a resolution among the MC members meeting or to refer to the association members by notifying a special meeting and then get it approved by a resolution.
This would be the legal and proper procedure to be followed in this aspect.

Well analysed, opined and advised by experts, I endorse.
Festival Committee is a sub-committee of Managing Committee, which do not have separate legal existence and may be superseded / replaced / or dissolved by present MC.
You may raise the issue in AGM of the Society, if you feel strong and majority of the members follow your views.
