I wrote to Registrar seeking clarifi action on the accounts of society. MC responded to the registrar through advocate. His fees has been charged to my maintenance. Is it right?
A.Dear Client,
It is not right at all. A society cannot claim litigation costs from the member who raised a dispute in his individual capacity before the Authority. A registered society is a legal entity that may sue or be sued by anybody for any arbitrary and unfair action including a member of the Society. A society cannot charge for any purpose other than maintenance outrightly which is not even covered by the Byelaws of the Society. You need to bring the matter again to the notice of the Registrar or Deputy Registrar of the Cooperative Society for an appropriate order in this regard failing which to reach out to an Advocate for filing a civil suit against the Society for arbitrary and unjust action violating the provision of Byelaws.
