Apartment ec

Dear Sir, we are a regd association in Chennai city & are governed by our set of bye laws.We had an AGM recently & elected a new EC comprising of President,Secretary,Treasurer & four committee members.But within a week of functioning the secretary ( a prone trouble maker) started interfering in the operations of the Treasurer by giving orders that his job is only signing cheques & expenses/vouchers will be managed by him (sect.) & manager & will be given later.At any given time the manager & his asst will have Rs.2000/- imprest amount & the treasurer must release funds accordingly.But the treasurer has said its not morally right & he must get indent with explanations & bills/vouchers immediately for accounting since he is responsible for funds.His stand in opinion is absolutely justified.The President , committee members & a few owners supported the Treasurer.Now the Treasurer has frozen his stand & refused to sign further cheques until an EGM is called for & new members elected since he & the President want to resign.A letter to this effect has been signed by them both & sent to all owners.As per the bye law the President can call for an EGM. The secretary, still takes his stand in asking the treasurer to sign cheques or resign & he will co-opt a new person as the Treasurer. My question is "are the President & Treasurer correct in calling for an EGM to re elect new EC"? Also they have the support of a few EC members & flat owners who want a EGM. In fact four of the EC &  three owners have signed a petition asking for the same. Pls appraise me on the justification of an EGM call. Thanks Rgds

if the majority of the committee memebrs wants to call an EGM for some urgent issues then the secretary himself cannot  stop the same. The President and the Treasurer can issue the circular for the same mentioning the agenda of the EGM. then the said issues can be discussed in the EGM.
