Legal Information
Below is a comprehensive legal analysis based on Indian law for your question.
You can file a complaint before the Cooperative Court or the Registrar of Cooperative Societies in Kolkata under West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act 1997 for failure of the society to maintain the building. Under the Cooperative Societies Act of West Bengal, the Registrar can direct the society to carry out repairs and can also appoint an administrator if the managing committee is non-functional. You can also approach the Consumer Forum for deficiency in service by the society. If the Registrar does not act, you can approach the Calcutta High Court under Article 226 for a direction to the Registrar to take action. Document all complaints and resolutions passed by the society as evidence.
