30-Jul-2023 (In R.T.I Law)
I live in akshaya metropolis in chennai on gst road. I am student in the nearby SRM university. The gaurds at the gate barred my friend from entering my apartment as they say that vistors cannot be enetrtained by students.This was insulting as well as the manager inside was talkimng rudely and saying that the builders are only service providers and society frames rules.Can societies frame rules as to bar vistiors only from flats leased out to tenants? Also can the security gaurds keepid cards with them of the visitors?

Dear Student,
There are decorums to be maintained in any campus. Because you have rented out a flat you should not spoil the decorum and be a nuisance to the families to are owners of the flats and disturb them. You are only a tenant and tenants are bound by various laws in our country. Had you been in Mumbai you would have faced very stiff issues and would have to vacate the flat had you created a problem there as the societies in mumbai are very strong and rigid. In Chennai every flat has their own bye laws and are govt by the Flat owners and societies act of Tn, which is not as strong as Mumbai flat owners assn. But remember you have come to study, concentrate on your education, learn to live in harmony as cultures differ from yours and the families who live there. Further they are owners of the flats, they can always call the police and hand you over to them for creating nuisance. Discretion is the better part of valor. Finish your studies and try to take your future high and go away from here instead of worrying over frivolous issues.
