Section 77A MCS Act | Administrative Committee Must Be Temporarily Appointed for Election Neutrality, Not Day-to-Day Management : Bombay HC
The Bombay High Court has ruled that an administrative committee appointed under Section 77A of the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act must be strictly confined to overseeing election processes and cannot assume control over the society’s daily affairs. This ensures impartiality in co-operative governance and prevents incumbent officeholders from manipulating electoral outcomes - a critical safeguard for member democracy in housing societies.
