I am a flat owner in an old society (20 years). The flat owners in the society are parking their vehicles in the compound as per their convenience. Parking space is not allotted to any one so far. Recently the managing committee members came up with an idea to collect deposit of Rs. 15000/- from members owning car. They have not specified about use of this fund nor they are ensuring safety / damage of the vehicle parked in the compound. Our society compound is also in very poor condition & managing committee has no plans to repair the compound. I have requested them to repair the compound with contribution from all the members instead of collecting money from members owning cars. They had hurriedly called a general body meeting on three days of notice period & passed a resolution to collect said deposit from car owners. Since the inception of the society, the affairs of the society are managed by a handful of members who are ignorant of society bye laws & are adamant to listen to other members. The chairman himself is in the managing committee for past 20 years & reluctant to handover charge to any other member of the society. As there are very few members in the society, it is difficult to take any corrective action against managing committee atrocities. Recently I had submitted nomination form in respect of my flat to Joint Secretary. He flatly refused to hand over to me acknowledgement copy of the form under pretext that the content of the form are required to be verified. My explanation to him about third copy as acknowledgement purpose only went in vain. Instead he advised to send the nomination form by registered post in case I need acknowledgement. Please advise how these adamant managing committee members can be persuaded to abide by society bye laws.
