Dear President of V S Cozy Apartment Owners Welfare Association,
As a member of the association, I have right to ask the association president about our apartment handover scam happened in V S Cozy. Please find below sequence of events happened in V S Cozy in 2010-2011 which arises a question about there is something terrible went wrong when it comes to apartment documents handing over process:
1) V S Cozy Apartment Owners Welfare Association was registered in first quarter of 2010
2) We had first AGM in August and nominated committee was dissolved and a fresh committee was elected and started working
3) The President of the association resigned on 29th Sept 2010 due to personal reasons, there was no formal acceptance or rejection of the resignation and President continued to hold the position.
4) The discussion on Apartment documents handover started in the month of January 2011 (Find the attached reference file - Gmail - Meeting with Rammohan_Committee Discussion_January 2011.pdf)
5) There was lot of discussion around LIFT problems faced by the residents and one of the reasons for the LIFT problem was the Controller of the Lift and the technician also confirmed the same. Few committee members were arguing that unless the Lift controller gets replaced by builder, we will not take the handover of the documents from builder.
6) The handover discussion gone to such an extent that, the committee members opted to dissolve the committee as there was lot of difference of opinion among the committee members
7) The Handover discussion e-mail thread started in 28th Jan 2011 and most of the committee members decided to dissolve the committee on 9th Feb 2011 and a notice was being issued for Extra Ordinary meeting for 27th February 2011
8) A new committee has been formed and till today there was no further communication on Apartment Documents handover from the managing committee.
9) But I discovered a document in the apartment document list which I shared in Whatsapp sometime back that the Lift Related documents have been handed over to the Association committee on 4th November 2010 !! How is this possible? Till 9th February 2011, there was a discussion was going on and because of that the committee got dissolved and how can Handover be completed 3 months before the discussion!!!
If the committee had not taken handover of Lift, we may not have to spend approximately Rupees 3 Lakh rupees for replacing the controller now for one lift. Because the issue with Lift was identified during 2010 only that, the controller is creating problem and few committee members were arguing that builder has to replace the controller. Considering we have two lifts, we would have effectively saved Rs 6 Lakh rupees for association if we would have taken a stand which was favoring all the residents and members of association. For replacing the controller, now association has taken money from all flat owners. This we could have avoided if we all taken a decision on apartment handover by calling SGM in 2010/2011.
Most importantly, most of the people who were stuck in the Lift so many times in VS Cozy, didn't have to undergo this pain.
There is something really fishy and document manipulation by few committee members who signed the Apartment Handover document confirmation. Why the committee members who signed the handover not informed all the members of the association about the handover? When the handover completed? Please find the attached file for your reference on Confirmation given to builder by 3 committee members (President, Secretary and Vice-President) - Lift Documents Handover_November 2010.pdf.
Request the current president to look into this matter and refer to the documents attached and do investigation and update all the members of the association about this "Apartment Document Handover Scam" happened in VS Cozy. This scam is worth Rs 6 Lakh and above and because of few members all of us are paying the Penalty by sharing the Controller replacement cost.
Hope this gives a clear picture on Apartment Handover scam and any clarification is required feel free to contact me.
Thanks and Best Regards
Dhananjaya
