Dear Friends
I am president of one association registered under societies registration act. In that associtiona from 2003 onwards any meeting was conducted till 2008. At that stage in 2008 May, one general body meeting was conducted and i was elected as president to that society. Thereafter in difference of opeinion the secretary to the society has filed renewal forms for 2003 to 2008. in that filing he has suppressed my election and he has created documents in a single day for 5 years as general body meeting was conducted in time. Now I have given petition to the registrar of societies to not accept the renewal forms filed by secretary and to take necessary action. Now I have got a doubt that whether i can file criminal complaint against the secretary for forger for cheating offence. In this matter all members are with the secretary, but they did not conduct any meeting from 2003. but they have made papers as prompt meeting. What is the remedy to punish the secretary. the society is a house owners association. the secretary to the association is office assistant in a sub registrar office. whether i can take any step to departmental action against the secretary

u can initate criminal proceedings in the instant case by filing the necessary complaint before the judicial magistrate of competent jurisdiction.

First you can file criminalcomplaint for forgery if you have proper evidence, next you approach a district judge, court by filing an applicationunder section 23 of the socieites act and alsoyou can seen appointmentof receiver and also seek injunction restraining them from conducting any such activities which are detrimental tothe association.
