Better study the bye-laws of the concerned society instead of generalization. If it is provided therein then the householder can perform the act mentioned above otherwise not.riven

I agree with Mr.Datta. Firstly, bye-laws of any society is prepared on the basis of statutory bye-laws. Even if the concerned society's bye-laws states otherwise, the statutory bye-laws holds good for all purposes. Is it possible for any society's bye-laws (prepared to suit to its convenience) to override statutory bye-laws???riven
