WITHOUT being prejudiced, try the following via-duct:
1. Make appropriate petition before the ward Registrar of Coop., for extension of the term of the Managing Committee.
2. In exceptional cases and with little adjustment/juglery and at the discretion of the Registrar, the registrar will direct the committee to continue, "TILL" he appoints an Election Officer to conduct elections in the Society. This will legalise the committee till then and the committee can complete its "existing" project. However such committee will be treated as ad-hoc committee, and no major policy decisions can be undertaken.
