Notification of Societies Deemed Dissolved under Section 44(4), No. 1581/A2/2010
The Tamil Nadu Government, through the Heads of Departments notifications, issued Notification No. 1581/A2/2010 in the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette dated April 21, 2010. It declares that the 64 listed registered societies are deemed dissolved from the date of publication because they did not show cause within the period given in an earlier notice.
What the notification does
Notification No. 1581/A2/2010, published by the Tamil Nadu Government through the Heads of Departments notifications on April 21, 2010, concerns registered societies under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975. It records that the listed societies did not show cause after the period specified in an earlier notice and declares them deemed dissolved from the publication date under section 44(4).
Who is affected
The notification directly affects 64 societies identified by registration number, registration year, name and address. Most of the addresses are in Kanyakumari district, including Nagercoil, Colachel, Suchindram, Manavalakurichi, Agastheeswaram, Aralvaimozhi and surrounding places.
The listed bodies include:
- Women’s associations, youth clubs and community welfare groups.
- Trade, driver, farmer, producer and professional associations.
- Religious, charitable and social service organisations.
- The Kanyakumari District Association of Matriculation Schools.
- The Tamil Nadu Agricultural Engineering Department Diploma Engineers Association.
- Village, consumer protection and community development societies.
Members, office bearers and people dealing with any listed society should compare its exact name, address and registration number with the Gazette entry. Similar names alone may not be enough to identify a society.
Key provisions
- The societies had previously been covered by a notice under section 44(2) of the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975.
- The period stated in that earlier notice had expired.
- The registered societies did not provide reasons against the proposed action.
- Their names could therefore be struck from the register of societies.
- All 64 listed societies are deemed dissolved from April 21, 2010, the date on which the notification was published.
Relevance to property transactions
Notification No. 1581/A2/2010 does not contain survey numbers, property descriptions or findings about land ownership. However, a buyer, owner or professional dealing with property connected to a listed society should note that the society was declared dissolved from the publication date. The Gazette entry establishes the society status stated in the notification, but it does not explain the treatment of any property held or claimed by that society.
