Residents consultation mechanism in running society and other affairs

While Delhi witnessed growth of residential areas, the societies played an important role right from the stage of formation of societies, allotment of land on lease,development of area according to sanctioned lay out plans,then allotment of plots to members and finally handing over of services to respective authorities like MCD.
There after came a problem, arising out of death of original members and resale and then construction of flats purchased by different owners.
This problem was taken care of RCS and SOCIETIES WERE EXPECTED TO WIND UP except those who had built community centre etc.
Now the residents got divided into two groups....member and non members.
In certain cases non members were more than members of society.
The charges determined as security charges, annual maintenance charges were required to be made applicable to all residents.
BUT THEY HAVE NO SAY IN DETERMINATION OF CHARGES OR WHETHER A particular services is required or not.
Kindly advise...WHAT IS THE LEGAL STATUS.
WHAT ACTION SHOULD SOCIETY OR RESIDENT TAKE TO SOLVE THIS TANGLE.

  1. When residents are not member of society, are they liable to make payment of charges?
    What is the legal status with regard to recovery of such charges.
