This query is : Resolved
Dear Experts,
I have a query. We are having a RWA registered under the Karnataka Societies Act.
There are 6 Blocks and we have 15 members in the Managing Committee (MC) - 2 from each block, a president, a secretary and a treasurer.
Now the President and secretary both have resigned.
What is the best way out to resolve the crisis.
Whether the MC stands dissolved?
Whether New elections are required?
Whether new elections can be declared by the ad-hoc committee of the remaining 13 members.
Whether EOGM is required and then elections are held by their approval in the meeting.
Whether both the posts can be filled without EOGM by co-opting these two.
Matter is a bit URGENT. Request your valuable views.

If a President/Secretary or any Executive Member resigns then in the General Body meeting the vacancy may be filled in with a majority of 2/3rd members. Or the General Body may conduct a Special General Body meeting with a notice to all the members well in advance at least a fortnight and elect the new members for vacant posts of the association. It will not be dissolved. The new election is not necessary.

It is an association registered under the provisions of Karnataka Societies Registration Act where associations have submitted their MoU and AoA, which contain rules and regulation for functioning of the RWA.
On resignation of President its Vice-President and Secretary the Joint-Secretary shall take over the charge and function as "Officiating" President and Secretary.
Election of new team of Managing Committee may be conducted at the earliest.
