The government will be conducting a survey of elected bodies in cooperative housing societies across the state. This information was recently given in the assembly during a calling attention motion.

Showing concern that hundreds of societies did not have a board or managing committee to look after the affairs of the condominiums, members wanted more information from the government. Ashish Shelar asked if the government planned to gather data on this.

Calling attention is a procedure whereby a member calls the attention of a minister to a matter of urgent public importance. The minister concerned makes a brief statement thereon after which members seek clarifications.

There are nearly 81,000 co-operative housing societies, including over 12,000 from city, in the state. These are divided in two groups – K and D. The first category comprises housing societies that have less than 200 members, while the other has a member count of more than 200. Each housing society should have an elected body in place by June 30.

"We will conduct a survey to check if the elected bodies are in place," said Dadaji Bhuse, minister of state for co-operation. Two other issues that were raised will also be taken for discussion stated the minister. These were allowances given to those conducting elections and to the CA's. On the issue of shortage of people in the registrar's office, the minister said that staff from other departments would be taken for the work to be carried forward.
