Living with parents in society but not allowed to attend meeting


22-Dec-2023 (In Property Law)
Dear sir, I leave with my father in a same flat and I handle his business too. The society where we live, conducts AGM every month. Last time when I went to attend the meeting the secretary of our complex told me that you don't have any right to attend this meeting because the flat in which you live is not in your name its registerd under your father's name ,hence he didn't allowed me to enter in the meeting. So do you think that I can't attend that meeting as I am not the owner but my father is?

You ask your father to appoint you his nominee with the right to attend the societies meetings on his behalf along with voting rights on your behalf.

After that the cooperative society cannot legally stop you from participating in the meetings of the society.
