Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India

Right to prevent MTNL staff in a Mumbai Co-op Hsg. Society

Sir,

I am a tenet leaving in a Flat in

Navi Mumbai in a Co-op Housing

Society under Mumbai Hsg. Society

Act. As there was not landline in

the flat, I had applied for an MTNL

telephone connection in my name

with a NoC from the flat owner who

is a regular member of the Co-Op

Hsg. Society. MTNL has a digital

exchange in the Society premises,

When the MTNL staff came to

provide connection, the Manager of

the Society denied access to the

society premises to MTNL staff for

providing connection citing that '' it

was unanimously decided in last

AGM to have new telephone

connections in the name of the

''owner'' only. Even though the

owner has No objection to my

availing the MTNL connection in my

name, the society is preventing

this. I would like to know is the

society has jurisdiction in the choice

of billing by a member? If no, than

what course of action can be taken

to stop the manager from

preventing access to MTNL staff to

provide connectivity.

Action of society is not legal.

Approach the DDR or Court for redressal.
