Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India

Housing society bylaws

I would like to know whether the society bye-laws can govern, to whom any apartment in society could be let on lease by the owner?

Like in the society where I was staying, one fine day the society comity decided that the apartment can not be let on lease to bachelors, and hence I would need to move out and find another apartment for rent. I would like to know whether is this kind of rule/bye-law is legal?

Appreciate your response.

Thanks.

Resolution of society is discriminatory as it only exclude bachelors to rent/hire a flat in the society. Hence same is not legal.
