Rules for forming committee in redevelopment housing society


05-Jun-2023 (In Property Law)
Our building is undergoing redevlopment after the initial plan failed as the developer withdrew at the last moment. A committee consisting of society members was set up to progress redevelopment with a newly selected builder. This committee has forced members to provide irrevocable consent to the redevelopment scheme and is now pretty much ignoring request for information from a minority group in the society...can this committee members be held legally liable for making decisions on behalf of the members?

Dear Querist, I presume the property is from Maharashtra. Then there are redevelopment guidelines issued by government dated 3rd January 2009, which has to be mandatory followed by the all Societies going for redevelopment. the Committee members cannot force you for giving consent. you should file appropriate proceedings in co-operative court and high court.
