Can I become chairman of cooperative housing society after my father (chairman) transfers flat on my name?


12 January 2015 Prasad, Pune

My father was the chairman of our society, he decided to transferred the flat in my name by gift deed. During society meeting, it was suggested that the chairmanship to be given to me.

After the transfer of flat, out of 12 members total Only 6 member were present, all 6 members had no objection toward this and congratulated me for being elected as the New chairmen.

Now some members who were not present during the meeting have objection towards me as the New chairman this include the existing Secretary who was not present during the meeting.

I want to know weather My chairmanship is illegal.
