Housing Societies Cannot Force Owners to Vacate or Sell Flats by Resolution Alone
Housing societies cannot force owners to vacate or sell their flats solely through majority resolutions. While societies may expel members for bylaw violations, ownership rights remain intact unless legal action is taken. Expulsion from membership and eviction are distinct, with courts affirming that internal resolutions do not equate to eviction orders. Legal safeguards, such as opportunities to present a case and regulatory approvals, apply in expulsion proceedings under laws like Maharashtra's Co-operative Societies Act.
