The Tamil Nadu Government, through the Heads of Departments Notifications section of the Tamil Nadu Government Gazette, published notification reference number ந.க. எண் 3219/ஆ2/2009 on 29 September 2010, removing 51 societies from the register and dissolving them for failing to file reports continuously for more than three years. The same Gazette supplement also published notification reference number ந.க. எண் 4686/ஈ2/ஈ3/2010-2, warning another group of societies that their names would be removed if they did not provide a proper explanation within three months from Gazette publication.
What the Gazette notification does
The Tamil Nadu Government Gazette notification under the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975 records the removal and dissolution of 51 societies registered in 2004. The societies had failed to file required reports continuously for more than three years.
A previous notice had been published in Tamil Nadu Government Gazette No. 15-A on 22 April 2009. Because the listed societies still did not file their reports before the allowed period expired, their names were removed from the register of societies and the societies were dissolved.
Who is affected
Notification reference number ந.க. எண் 3219/ஆ2/2009 directly affects the office bearers and members of the 51 named societies. The list includes:
- Residents welfare associations in areas including Irugur, Cheran Gardens, Vadavalli, Kuniyamuthur, Sundarapuram and SelVapuram.
- Farmers, workers, employers, women, youth and community welfare organisations.
- Sports, cultural, educational, charitable and religious service associations.
- S.P. Towers Investors Association and several cable television operator associations.
Property buyers and owners may find the notification relevant when dealing with a residents welfare association or investors association appearing in the list. The notification concerns the registration status of societies. It does not identify any land parcel or announce a change in land use.
Key provisions
- Fifty-one listed societies were removed from the register and dissolved.
- The reason given was failure to file reports continuously for more than three years.
- The final action followed an earlier Gazette notice and the expiry of the period stated in that notice.
- Each affected society is identified by its registration number, name and address.
Separate proposed removal notice
Notification reference number ந.க. எண் 4686/ஈ2/ஈ3/2010-2 concerns a separate group of societies. The registration office had sent notice under letter reference number 4686/ஈ1/ஈ3/2010 dated 29 July 2010, asking whether those societies were functioning, but received no reply.
That notification gives the societies three months from Gazette publication to provide a proper explanation. If no explanation is received, their names will be removed from the register. The supplied text begins this separate list with registration number 269/2007 and a Kodambakkam society, but does not provide the complete entry or full list.
